WJ lift question...

[JChatary]

Since I apparently cannot sell my 2" bb for my WJ....what mods do I need t make if I'm going to add these 2" coil spacers to my current 4" Iron Rock lift?

Springs, shocks, sway bar links, track bar, and t-case lowering kit

Longer front LCAs, possibly adjustable for fine tuning.

Longer front UCAs. This is not a given, you'll need to check your front pinion angle once the pucks are in to determine if you will need adjustable UCAs.

Longer brake lines

Steering upgrades. I don't know if the set-up is a Y, T, inverted...whatever...something to look in to.

Longer rear LCAs, again, possible adjustable.

Custon triangulated upper CA, or just buy one of the A-arm spacers that is available.

Longer brake lines.

Slip Yoke Eliminator- Is this even available for your T-case?



I would start by looking at 6" kits that are available for the WJ, and seeing what all you need to piece together to get a complete kit, just my thought though.

Also, is losing out on $30 worth of lift pucks worth an extra $600(s.w.a.g.) of equipment and less reliability/drivability?

How many DSs are you going to puke with 6" as oppossed to 4"?

pretty much what the person above me said...id go with all 8 adj. arms or even their long arms up front...break lines...slip yoke eliminator possibly depending cuz all wj's are different as are xj's and zj's...longer shocks...basically with the money youd spend to get everything for 6" of lift youd be better going with their 6.5" long arm kit and selling everything you have now but if i was you idk how long you had this lift but id keep wheeling it and see if you even need to go higher plus you can become a better driver then go bigger later

[JChatary]

Once I go with the double cardon ds for the front...there'll be more more puking of driveshafts!

It was just a thought....seriously...if the extra 2" is going to mean that much extra work & money...I won't even bother.

I wouldn't do 6" with a SA kit. The ride would be incredibly choppy and put way too much stress on your stock arm connections. Most people go to a LA setup when they get over 4". However, I have seen guys put 6" under a WJ or ZJ on SAs.

Then you need to work on steering and drive line issues too...

i know a guy with a zj at 6.5" on short arms and 35's and when flexed he can drop his tire under the rocker. sure the ride would be better with L.A. but then you gotta pony up another 1200-1700 or sumtin like that depending on company

Wow....how about I keep the 2" BB kit for sale then?

I'm really not in the mood for all that wrenching and loss of $$$$$

I would say that is a good idea.

Unless you need to clear some big tires for rock crawling, or need to impress some local chicas at the mall, I'd skip that big a lift....period.
