This is an older Rusty's Offroad lift kit, I've ran it on two different XJ's the last few years and the wife is finally letting me spend some cash to upgrade to a long-arm.
Here are the PROS:
-Complete kit (minus the 1" transfer case drop)
-1 year old SkyJacker Hydro shocks
-tons of ground clearance
-clear 35" tires with minimal trimming
-front flex is ok
-budget friendly
-stainless steel brake lines
-I don't run sway bar (I think I have some JKS Disconnects, If I can find them, they are yours)
CONS:
-It's a pretty stiff ride (see pics of front control arm angle and rear leaf springs... esp the angles in the leaf packs)
-Older kit, bushings are a little worn out
I ran this kit on my 1991 with a Np242, I used the transfer case drop and stock drive shaft (it worked, but I recommend getting the drive shaft lengthened)
This kit is still under my 1999...I run a SYE on the Np231 and a lengthened front driveshaft in the rear. It is not my daily driver
When it sells, I can take the lift off within a day or two.
I live in South Lyon, but the Jeep is at my dad's shop in Saline, MI (Ann Arbor) area
call or text Keith @ 7 Three four - three 2 zero - 2 nine 1 seven
Asking $350 OBO
Here are some various pics....
