Tires, Wheels, and Lift kit

[kemolewis]

I'm looking for a 3-4 in lift kit, 31x9.5-10.5 MT tires and rims for my 95 xj. It's my daily driver so I don't want to be to radical but want to be able to have fun on the weekends.let me know if you can help.
:cheers:

New or used ?

 

[kemolewis]

Would like new but probably can't afford new right now so used if in good condition

Pro Comp is having a Buy 3 get one free sale right now..

Also what brand lift are you interested in ?

 

[kemolewis]

I was looking on JC Whitney and they had one I believe it was called rough country for $200.00 but thought if anybody had a used one for cheaper it would help

 

[AZXJ]

That's a cheap and easy way to get into a lift.. does it comes with shocks??

 

[kemolewis]

Yeah shocks, springs, leafs, new bushings. Is it a good lift to get me started you think.

 

[XJmania030]

Yea it is an add a leaf set up im gessing for 200.

 

[kemolewis]

No it shows a full leaf spring.

 

[kemolewis]

I stand corrected. I looked into it a little further and it is add a leaf. my buddy says we can do it in about 1 1/2-2 hours

the big problem with the rough country setup is it uses a short AAl instead of a full length one, adds tons of stress to the leafs and rides like a lumber wagon, you get what you pay for and with lift parts it never pays to go cheap.
(experience talking here)

 

[XJmania030]

yea. if yo only have 200 to spend on a lift wait and save up. Get a good quaility kit. You wont regret it.

 

[kemolewis]

Just found out I do have a lift on my xj albeit a small one. I have a rancho 2" with an aal. Now can I make this a 4" without buy a whole new lift of is it just better to go with a new 4" lift with full springs?
