I picked up a 3 inch lift on saturday. Right now i have coils springs and shocks. Do i need to order brake line extensions, U- bolts for my 8.25 or anyhting else? Just a basic lift right now, im not sure if i will need a adj track bar right now. If the answer is a yes can you include some links please, thanks guys

 

You say you have coils and shocks, what about the rear?? Add a leaf, blocks, full leafs, shackles, or combination?

You can just redrill the axle mount for the track bar no need to buy one. At 3" you can prolly straighten out the front brake line to get by. Otherwise brake hoses off a yj work up to 4.5 give or take. You may or may not need to lengthen or get discos for the swaybar links. The rear brake line you can use one off a dodge Dakota they are long enough for a 6.5" lift plus.

 

Sorry i meant i had the rear springs too. Ill look into getting new lines i just kinda didnt want to lol

 

Get new ubolts

 

When I was running 3 in. there was no issue with stock front swaybar/brake lines but do get new u-bolts.

 

new brake lines arent that expensive especially if you just use the yj lines.

 

Thanks guys for the input. What yalls experience with adj track bars at 3 inches?

 

You don't have to have one, but you will probably want one eventually. I'm running a rock krawler track bar on my 3" lift right now.

 

Without one will i have any DW or any tire wear? I just watched the video on youtube of the rough country 3 inch lift install and they didnt use new u bolts. So is it a good rule of thumb to do the opposite of RC lol?

 

For new U-Bolts i looked up Advance Auto and they have these: http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/web...7CGRP2111_____ Is this the right size and everything for my 8.25 with the springs and no blocks?

 

the u bolts should be 3" ID

 

SO theyre the right size?

 

idk, the link is blocked at work.

 

DW won't be an issue unless the track bar is shot. Just get the axle centered and drill the new hole.

 

Thanks! Could you or someone else double check that link just to make sure im right about the U-Bolts? If not where should i order them from? I eventually want to get an adjustable track bar and there is a sale going on til the end of april and i would bundle them together but if i dont get one i will just order a track bar from rocky road.
