This is a post for future me, hoping to get a near stock TJ/LJ very soon. I know there will be overwhelming opinions in multiple ways, but I’d at least like some insight.
My current TJ has a 4” suspension lift. While it has served its purpose (I run 33’s), it comes with its own set of issues - t-case drop, t-case shifter issues, pinion angles, DPA, etc.. These are all things I remedied myself, but I’m hoping to get something more stock in the future. I feel that the 4” is a bit excessive for my tire size and overall use.
What are some favorites for a lift to run 33s? Height, brand? Where is the threshold to not have to do major mods like a MML or SYE/TC drop?
My old YJ had a 2.5” suspension lift, and ran 32’s perfectly fine, so in my mind, that’s where I’m at. I don’t believe I had to do any TC drop/SYE or even get new control arms.
