So I'm looking to replace my suspension. I bought the jeep 2 years ago its a 97 (later year release) and pretty much stock. I don't think the suspension has ever been changed and it's in need of a refresh.
I've done some digging around and I'm thinking about going with the Rancho shocks and potentially installing H&R springs as well.
Currently the jeep has no lift. Last year I put on 30 inch BFG K02's (I wanted to go bigger but I have 3.07 gearing and a regear is not in the budget)
I'd like a minimal lift and the H&R springs look good for the 1 inch lift but I don't know if it will look off with the smaller 30 inch tires. I probably don't even need the lift since most of the driving I do is in the city and the occasional forest service road but it would be nice to have a little more than the stock height.
My questions are:
Does H&R make springs for stock height for the TJ? If not, which springs should I look at to replace the factory springs?
Should I go for the 1 inch lift? Will it look silly with 30 inch tires?
Would the Rancho shocks be the same length for the stock height and the 1 inch lift or are they different parts?
