I'm new on this site- so hello everyone!

I've got a '97 XJ, and would love to lift it @ 4''. The problem

is that all the lift kits that I've found are all priced at

or @ $450 bucks!! Unfortunally I do not have those extra

fun coupons just laying around. Any cheap lifts out there??

thanks!

A cheap lift for a XJ would be the 2 inch spacer lift at apprx. $100.00

I would not recommend a cheap 4" lift. At 4" the drive line angles get a little hairy, you'd need a kit that can handle these angles and not turn your jeep into a massaging chair.



What size tires are you wanting to run?[addsig]

I buddy of mine had a RE 4.5" lift with 32's and he still trimmed the fenders and put bushwackers on. He loved that setup. He just recently went to 35" tires and just ordered a long arm kit and 6" coils.



If I only had the money![addsig]
