Sit level
I have a 99 XJ and was wondering do you guys think it will sit sort of level if i put a 2 inch coil spacer up front. I currently have a 3" RC coil up front and the rear is a dakota bastard back. I measured the front to 29" and the rear is 32". What else would i need in the front make it ride right again if i put the 2 inch coil spacer in and get around 5 inches i currently have stock control arms no sway bar stock brake lines no SYE or TC drop. do you guys think it will sit level and sorry for the sh***y picture thanks

with it not on a level surface its hard to tell. but it looks like 2 inches would be close. its a good idea to have the rear a little higher then the front, that way you can load it and its level, or towing its pretty level too.
I would think 2-3 inches depending on how level you want it. what frankZ posted is the only real way to do it once and be able to fine tune it...

Oh god, please don't do it! Your gonna get vibes and most likely the death wobble! Your lower control arms, being stock, will definitely pull your axle backwards too. Bad mojo

oh yeah, forgot to comment on that part. you need control arms, adjustable trackbar, alignment, sway bar disconnects, SYE and longer brake lines. do it right, do it once....

Ok before i put the spacers in im going to work on getting the parts little by little i already have the spacers they were free theyre polyurethane ones. I have an adjustable track bar in my garage just waiting to put it on and i guess ill buy extended brake lines and extended lower control arms and i guess for the Tc drop im going to go 1 inch
