I know I'll need complete leaf packs. Should I get stock crown hd packs then 1in lift shackles and spacers up front? what do you thibk?

Old Man Emu makes a really nice 2.5 inch lift. They give you coils, trim spacers, leafs, and shocks all around, super cushy ride from what I hear. Here's a link to it. http://www.4wheelparts.com/Lift-Kits...3&t_pn=ARB8401

Thanks you, I'm looking for a cheapish route, as this is mainly for looks and to get a little over stock, especially with my saggy leaves.

GreenXJ98

Ah, I understand. I would piece it out and find some greaseable shackles for the rear, coil spacers for the front, and new shocks. This is a decent budget lift for the money. You just need shocks for it. http://www.quadratec.com/products/76190_803_07.htm

there are 3 ways to to it:
1. cheapest route is shackle and spacer, probably gonna ride rough in the rear with shackle angle.
2. decent route is a 2" leaf pack and a small shackle, be a bit better.
3. best but a bit more spendy, new stock leafs, shackle relocator and what ever shackle length to get you were you want. gonna give you the best ride and flex.

Can't you get two and a half with some ZJ parts from the boneyard?

Like what Demonoid said, If you are already buying new leaf packs, then go with the shackle and coil spacer combo. Get shackle relocation boxes, and then get some nice shocks like Bilsteins or Old Man Emu, and you'll have a nice setup.

Do you know if I bought a stock "hd" leaf pack, is that any higher than say the normal leaf pack? Then Add shackles to that.

GreenXJ98

The HD leaf packs have a higher spring rate, so they will hold more when loaded down, but they will provide stock height. If your old springs were sagging, you will notice an increase in height because you're replacing worn out, saggy springs, but it will be at the height it was off the factory floor.

Thanks man, that's good to know, before I went and bought them, non hd probably has a softer ride too.

GreenXJ98

No problemo. Yeah, non HD leaf packs make have a slightly softer feel, but if you're going to get heavy bumpers, or load down your jeep with gear, it's good you bought the HD ones. I don't think you'll regret it. They'll ride nice with the new lift shackles too.

Sweet thanks for the help man!

For just a little over $400 you can buy a Rustys 3" full leaf/coil spring package that includes everything you need for the lift even shocks. Only other item would be an adj. track bar and your set to go his springs are VG and American made to boot.
