How much lift do I need?

[Rhino1276]

Im curious as to how much lift I need in order to clear 31x10.50x16's with 4.25 BS. I have a 97 2dr 4x4 with 4.0L 5spd. Any help would be great.

3 inches would be great.

Can I get the 3" with rear shackles and spacers upfront? Im not trying to put a ton of $ into this.

WOW!

Search for budget boost lifts... you can obtain 3" by doing a bastard pack in the rear, v8 Grand Cherokee coils up front w/spacer. Use stock JK shocks (all black ones preferred) but you'll probably want to get an adjustable trackbar too.

I say just trim... Costs a total of 0$... shouldn't need to trim much for 31's.

^---Agreed if you're trying to spend the least amount of money. People who say trimming doesn't look good after just didn't do it right. I'd recommend aftermarket wheels with less backspacing or spacers though

cut more lift less.

I used 3" coil spacers and 3" lift blocks. I fit 31 - 10.5 - 15 perfect. I do not use it for off road much, just a daily driver. Stock shocks work great to! I am using the factory '99 steel wheels with little to no rubbing at full turn.
