Default i bought rustys 3inch lift with new springs

I also got the transfer case drop kit and this is for a 01 4dr xj on 30.5s. Is there anything else I should consider for a nice flexing rig even at 3 in

Look at my 1988 Build thread in my signature. It went from stock to 3 inch rustys, to 4.5 inch lift.

If you have any vibrations then you might want some degree shims. 2 degree should be good for a 3"
