lift concerns

Hi all, first time poster long time reader. As the title states I'm playing with the thought of going from a 4" lift to 3" suspension lift. Picked up a 2000 wrangler sport that has a bare bones 4" RC lift with a 1" t-case drop. Currently running 285/75 16s with 1.5" spacers and stock steering...

Hey everyone! I've got a TJ that I'm tearing into quite a bit here at home to get the good parts out of, as it's going to scrap, and have the fenders, hood, and pretty much everything in the engine bay taken out. Working on removing the engine. I looked at the springs on the TJ I'm buying to...

Hello Jeep community, can anyone tell how many inches this TJ lifted? Can you guess by picture? Cos I am looking for right size if tires and rims. My plan 33" with 15" rims , currently it has 27.4 x 8.9 tire on 15" rims on the picture. It looks like it already lifted, 33" is okay? You guys are...

I'm getting a TJ here before too much longer, and plan for offroading. I don't know what all it has in/on it right now, I think it has stock suspension and gears. If I get 31s for it for offroading and daily use, should I lift it, and how far? And what should I regear to? I don't want to lift...

Newer to Jeep life. Lifted an ‘03 TJ with 2” OME suspension kit and shortly after upgraded from stock tires to 31x10.5x15 Wildpeaks on stock wheels. The stock ecco wheels to my understanding are 15x7 with about 5.25” of backspacing on them. Initially I was rubbing on both front tires at full...

Just picked up a 1998 Wrangler and I do have slight bump steer, really not that bad. Jeep wanders a bit above 60 on the highway. But nothing major, replaced the sway bar links as the bushings on the old one were completely gone on the bottom. Drag link and track bar seem aligned well even with...

My friend and I began putting a Zone 4 inch lift on my Jeep TJ today. We spent the day cutting bolts and trying to get stubborn nuts off. Using the instructions that zone provided for me I removed my control arms and began trying to remove the old springs and install the new ones. Well I guess...

THIS IS MY FIRST POST AFTER USING THIS SITE FOR YEARS. THERE IS UNEEDED BACK STORY PROVIDED TO EXPLAIN MY MENTALITY REGARDING THIS SPECIFIC SITUATION AND HOW I DEAL WITH MY JEEP IN GENERAL. FEEL FREE TO SKIP THE NEXT PARAGRAPH IF YOU JUST WANT TO GET TO THE PERTINENT INFORMATION. I will start...

So I currently have an 03 TJ. I bought it with a lift and 33’s already on it and I thought it was a 4inch. However I measured the springs under the weight of the jeep and i believe that they are sitting at 3inches of lift. If I were to buy 4 inch lift springs can I just swap them in or do I HAVE...

Hello all, Have a ‘97 TJ, 135k miles that’s been in the family since new. Older brother put a 2.5” body lift on it in the early 2000’s. Now it’s mine, and I want to put new suspension, coils and shocks. What’s my best move here? Would like a Fox, Metalcloak- type kit. If I do a 2.5” suspension...

Hi y'all, first time post here and long time lurker, I purchased a real beat up '97 Jeep from the local takuaches last May and I have been fixing it ever since. I've been looking to eliminate vibrations that happen when getting on the freeway starting at 55mph. I recently removed the rear...

Hi all, I recently purchased a 2.5" Quadratec lift with the fox shocks and am planning to install it soon. I am aware that I will probably need an SYE and a CV rear driveshaft, but I am unsure of anything else I may need such as extended brake lines or new control arms. I currently have a 2"...

Hey Guys, I recently bought an '03 Wrangler SE. I've already tackled a handful of things that need attention (calipers, pads, rotors) but most important is Death Wobble (confirmed, definitely Death Wobble). I've dug around a bit here and already found a litany of information, much appreciated...

I’m looking at the Rough Country 2.5” suspension coils and wanted to confirm they will also level. So the rep I spoke with said, yes, it levels the vehicle with a 1” rear and 2.5” front lift. Great. I want to add different shocks, so am going with a set of 4 Rancho RS5000 hydros which state...

Somewhat recently I acquired a set of metric equivalent 30×9's for my stock 03, and they rock but I want to go bigger, 32 or 33×10's. The kicker is, I very much dislike lifts as they make vehicles look like RC cars, and I'm not gonna daily an RC car, no offense... I've read in other threads one...

Hey all! Happy holidays and wheeling this time of year. I currently have the Rough Country 4 inch X series suspension lift, savvy inch and a quarter body lift, JKS adjustable rear track bar, BFG KO2 35’s, chrome moly axles, 4:56 gears front and back, brown dog 1” motor mounts and tummy tuck...

Howdy Yall, I’m new to posting to the Jeep forums while not to reading them ahah. I have a 1999 TJ 2.5l Manual, I am running 31 KO2’s with Rancho9000xl Shocks, RS999128 front and RS999240 rear. My dad and I put those shocks on when we got the Jeep about a year ago. We got it stock with 83k on it...

Hey all I want to drop my suspension lift down from 4” to 2”. I currently have a 2 inch body lift and a 4 inch Rough Country suspension lift with adjustable control arms. It’s just too much for a few reasons soooo I was thinking of just dropping down to 2” springs, struts, and sway bar links...

Okay y'all i'm tired of a stock jeep its time to lift her. I'm thinking a 3.5 inch suspension lift with a 1 inch body but i might just do the suspension. I want to be as tall as possible without needing a long arm or messing up my jeep i think 3.5 would be the best. got any advice on complete...

So I’m looking to lift my 2000 Sahara only looking for 2.5-3 of lift for my 32s. The most wheeling this Jeep will see is some light mountain trails that’s it. Mostly looking for a descent ride without breaking the bank too much. I was going to go with the Quadratec lift but after some research...
