Check out this craigslist beast....10 inch lift??!!!

[Backroads]

Since when did naxja become full of such haters? I mean aside from the stated 10" lift nonsense,if thats even the said height... its not THAT terrible looking.

 

[Hammered]

Technically this should be in classifieds

 

[MufflerBearing]

i have close to 10" i wanna see u guys talk shit on my rig???? anyone?

 

[Backroads]

^ I think his rigs lookin pretty good at 10"

 

[thatguy86]

ya used to see it all the time its HUGE!!!

 

[billyjp2]

in my personal wheelin experience anything that high would be terrifying, especially with a soft suspension

 

[5spd_xj]

i'd have to agree with billy

 

[thatguy86]

i'll be goin to a 6" soon and thats about as high as i'll ever go

 

[Backroads]

i'd have to agree with billy

but you also drive a 5 speed :firedevil

 

[5spd_xj]

it's an absolute fact that more lift is less stable than less lift...deny me that, then prove that an automatic over a 5 speed is anything other than personal preference. I'll wait... :roll:

You know you guys are giving this guy too much hell. You think he is wrong for overpricing it (sure, I don't agree with that price either) but don't you guys know how real business works? Or is it only OK with big corporations get to charge way too much and an individual doesn't have that same right?

At least he isn't selling lead-painted toys to our children.

But, flame on.

If you can give me one good reason for it being that high, (unless your one of those mud people or have 44" tires) I will give you a list of reasons why its better to be riding low. And before you ask. I had a xj with a 10" lift with 37s and it sucked.

 

[Begster]

I don't think its too bad. It could stand to be lowered a couple inches, but I would drive that around town.

 

[ipkyss]

I would drive it. Yet on the other hand, I can have fun beating a FWD honda. Anything can be fun if your beating it.

 

[Backroads]

agreed that taller than wide is definately not the most ideal situation.

 

[ktm racer 419]

i have dabbled between 6" of lift and 2.5" of lift on mah 37's

i prefer to be lower

 

[Blaine B.]

I was actually shooting for 8" but I ended up with 7". I am satisfied and don't see myself going any higher. I think this would be the tallest I'd go, suspension wise at least....of course I'd love to upgrade from the 32's that are on it right now to maybe 33's or 35's and tires that are about an inch wider (12.50's width maximum)

One of my friends runs an XJ with 8" with 33x13.50's and another runs his XJ about 10" with 34x10.50's, although these tires are only temporary replacements from his 32's. They aren't wide enough! Another one of my buddies with a ZJ runs 7.5" with 33x12.50's and it is alot taller than my XJ, of course ZJ's are taller overall with more headroom.

Just figured out my jeep is exactly 1.5" higher than a skyjacker 3" coil with big bumper on the front. Lift only measured with a tape. centerline of axle to fender line. So if a skyjacker coil sits what they say it does. I am 4.5" with 37s

 

[Blaine B.]

I know a guy with 3" and 35's as well. It performs well as he has proper bumpstopping but I have to admit, it does look a bit funny. Not too much uptravel to say the least but enough droop to satisfy a crowd.

Sean makes a GREAT point here :clap:

So true.
