hey guys m lifting my xj higher than I have it already its at 4.5" id like it to be a little higher and a little more trail tough.... what should I do/what/fits/works best...want it.. bit of a budget build .... I have 3" shackles for the rear to add on.... I have 2" lca drop backets installed already what will I have to do to the front to get er the same height as the rear n keep the steering decent? like to get er standing tall n then get into gearing/diff locks ect.....

Why do you need to go higher than 4.5"? If you're at that height you are probably on 33s, and you should have already addressed your steering.
If you really want to do more to it, work on getting the axles beefed up. A locked and geared Jeep on 33s will do just fine for what you're going to find around here.

Agreed. Stay at that height and beef up the steering. Look at losing the drop brackets for either long arms or adjustable arms. Get some flexy springs for the rear.

Ya id like to go higher.... Enough to comfortably fit 35's ill def look into a long arm kit.... Sounds like fun :)

If interested in a long arm kit stop by E-mortal customs. We have an xj and 2 zjs there with iron rock offroad long arm kits. Plus we can hook you up with everything you are looking for. Tires , gears , locker and much more. ;D
