you may or may not need a sye at 4.5 when my jeep was at 4.5 i dint need one i also had no drive line vibes, i was running the rustys one inch dropped crossmember though and it worked out good for me.

at 4.5 inchs you will need an adjustable track bar, lower control arms and extended brake hoses front and rear. check out seriousoffroadproducts.com he is a vendor on this site. he carries Rubicon Express which is one of the better lift manufacturers and you more than likely will not find a better deal or customer service.

 

i opted for the zone aal 3 inch,got the transfer case drops,new steering stabilizer,went with the nitro upgrade and boots,pretty red boots,when its done i want new tie rod ends and ball joints.I have tried searching here,someone had a list of suspension bolts and sizes,i cant find it,if you know the link,please help,i want all of my stuff to be new.Is there anything im missing,pitman arm,bushings,sway bars are gonna be gone,i just wanna do it right the first time.any help would be appreciated.BTW,my wife dosent like this site,lmao,"jesus f'in christ all you do is talk about that damn jeep!Thx all!

 

if i am forgeting something please let me know,im disabled but very mechanically inclined,retired Air Force jet engine mech,i just dont want my dd not d,ing,lol,thx all!

 

PM me, I live in Star Prairie! I drive a 97 XJ Sport with a 3" lift and 31's.

 

Thats the same lift I put on my 2001 . I would get lower control arms and an adjustable track bar.
