I am wanting to go 7 inch lift. What will I need I got 1000$ to spend

Scott0821

Uuuuummmmmmmmm only $1000? 7 inch coil springs, shocks, quick sway bar disconnects, track bar, tie rod, drop bracket, drop pitman arm, longer brake lines, 6 inch rear leaf, 1 inch shackles, long arms, new axles if you have stock (unless you aren't planning on running above 33s) bigger tires, sye, cv rear driveshaft, most likely regear. I don't see this being done for $1000 if it is stock right now. just my opinion

X2 I second this, not to kill your spirit but $1000 would cover up to 4.5 fully done up from stock and maybe not even. Xjs are an expensive hobby

You can't even get decent rims and tires for that size lift with $1k...save that money...

...and spend it on a reasonable sized lift maybe. why does everyone want the worlds tallest xj lately?

Atmos

but I guess if you have to do it, here are the links to the 2 cheapest kits out there...

Well my approach was a vineyard lift I'm doin it for a Mexican I quoted 1800 I gotta make atleast 5 off this job know Wat I mean I was gonna fab some 3 inch blocks weld them to the leaf perch or Watever u call it. Get. F250 coils in front with isolators cut the control arms and extend them. Relocate brake lines fab a 2 inch t case drop get a set of long discos. A adjustable trackbar a pitman arm off a tj or jk and I haven't thought of tierods and draglink setup

So you quoted a price on a ridiculous amount of lift that you simply can't do and based on the description of your plans...should not be done.

What does the owners ethnicity have to do with it?

Fab lift 3" lift blocks?
Weld blocks to the axle?!?!?
Cut and extend the flimsy OEM controls arms?!!?
2" t-case drop?

You're gonna need a very good lawyer if you attempt any of this because your plan is simply dangerous at best.

Be honest with the guy and tell him you're not qualified to fab a lift and have hom spend his money wisely on a quality lift kit installed by himself or reputable shop.

Sorry if my reply seems harsh, but it sure sounds like you've got no business touching someone else's rig.

SeriousOffroad

Yep, thought your name looked familiar.

hahahaha 7" for a grand? my god! my 33s are costing me more than that and I still need rims! Go back to the nice man you so kindly ripped off and tell him you can't make a lift.

brendancfarrell

X2 but never touch one again.

TheJerm

Some proper english and spelling would go a long way too.

Being Frugal and being stupid are two different things, dont rip that person off.

I am new to lifts, but just from ebay shopping, I can tell you that $1000 is not going to get it done. Also, blocks are not safe for lifting a Jeep. I want 30-31" tires and a 4.5" lift and I am looking at around $1300-1500 bucks.
Just get a 4.5" lift and some nice wheels and tires......save your money.
