In order to try to cut down on the repeat questions we get about lifts, this thread has been created. This thread will be made a sticky and edited for content. If you have a question for someone about their setup please PM them. Anything not fitting the format will most likely be edited/deleted by the Moderator.
Try to keep it to stuff that pertains the the suspension & tire fitment only. If you want to put what type of bumpers as a weight or tire fitment issue that is fine but please do not list mods that do not pertain to the lift/tire fitment issues. Remember this is not a registry section, so unnecessary information will be edited/deleted. IE stereo, or performance mods, lockers or what type of seats you have should not be posted here.
When viewing this thread, please keep in mind that the information listed here should be used only as reference and that XJs can vary from year to year or even within the same year. Some people get vibes etc at certain heights & some don't so be prepared for these differences.
