Dont know what to buy with my 150$ someone help me!
OK so I sold a touch screen radio, and have 150 bucks of it to spare what should I buy for my 2000 xj sport? I have a 4.5" add a lift and have really wanted to buy a 1.75 coil spacer/shackles lift to give it just a bit more. I really want to save for an off-road front bumper though to.... hmm someone help me! If I get the coil spacer and shackles will i have to pay for someone else to do the coil spacers? Is it easy to install?

Coil spacers are easy if you know how to use a wrench.

I would much rather install coil spacers than shackles. My leaf spring bolts were seized so tight that I gave up on them and figured out how to do my lift with the leafs still attached.
 If I had an extra $150 I would get these Amazon.com: KC HiLiTES 121 SlimLite Black 130-Watt Long Range Light System: Automotive

No, I bought a set of coil compressor's from Harbor Freight for like $10. They really sucked. But that would really help so you dont have to 'droop' the whole axle and get them in. I bought mine then gave up on them and just lowered the axle enough to get the new springs on. I bet that would be difficult now with the bigger springs.

Quick discos if you don't already have them, but definitely a JF membership.

Too Good

If it were me I would save it towards something bigger I might need, like gears or something. Or keep it incase something breaks. Its always good to have extra cash layin around. Seems like everytime I spend money on the jeep for something I don't REALLY need, then something else totally unrelated breaks.
 The KC lights posted above are a good idea if you need some lights, as well as the JF membership others have mentioned. Could also put it towards maintaining the jeep so it lasts longer.
