Cheap Lifts?

[Blue Rust]

I have a 76 Cj5 with a stock lift on it sitting on 32s. I wanted to know if there was any cheap way or cheap lift package (in the low $500 range) that i could get? I wanted to lift it to about 4 inchs would it be better to buy or build my own lift? Any type of help would be thankful

Shackle lift will get you a few inches quick and cheap.

I wouldn't go the shackle lift route over one in. of lift. I have a 2 1/2 Superlift and one in. longer, greasable shackles (maybe 1/2 lift) on my CJ7. This setup would cost 500 or so. I would tell you how it rides, but my Jeep is still in pieces. :roll: It makes my 31's look small.

Your right XT Master. A Shackle Lift is the cheapest way to go and fast.

The cheapest way would be a 1" shackle left, a 1" body left, and some sawzall work (YJ rear flares can help as well).

i got the 4" lift from them about 4 1/2 yrs ago and never had a problem... customer service and communication was great! but it has been a while so do some research first - make sure they're still making their own springs for the 4" lift... they werent for the 2" on the YJ's and I heard bad things (but none on the 4" kits) - very complete kits and all the hardware and shocks are (were) Rancho... like i said - mine is over 4yrs old and still doing great (gets better with age it seems .... ) just my $.02
