*All Available XJ Suspension Systems*​

Alright so heres the story, I realized that there are a lot of posts on this forum asking What kind of kit should I get? Where should I get it from? What are the Prices? So I decided that I should sit down and put a list together of what is out there and roughly what they come with. Well it turns out that it took me about three sittings to get it all finished up and im sure that I didn't finish everything. So I hope that you guys enjoy this and please by all means let me know if I have something wrong or if im missing a lift. Thanks for putting on a great forum guys and I hope that this helps out some people.

*Please Note*
1. The available tire clearance for each lift does not include any trimming that may be done. Those suggested sizes are for stock fenders and you have the potential to get a much bigger tire size if you do a little trimming.

2. The links provided are not necessairly the best available prices but instead links to give an example as to what the exact lift is that your looking for.

3. For all Jeep Forum members there is a coupon code that we can use while shopping at Jeepin Outfitters, this code is JFM05

In the rewards catalog for stuff you get with large viagra purchases.
ohh thanks can you send me your catalog?:laugh:
thanks for the feedback guys i will be adding those lifts asap but im currently hangin out with my girlfriend so i am a bit tied up

but anyway when i was looking for links for the lifts i wasnt necessairly looking for the best price instead of just finding the product

thanks for the imput
-Kyle
It might be a good idea to leave out the prices. That way you don't have bad info when prices change and/or if people search for it themselves, they may find a range of prices, some of which might be lower than what you list. Also it ensures you aren't stepping on the toes of any vendors here. Just a suggestion.

Otherwise, great job.:thumbsup:
eric that is an excellent idea, i was thinking about that very thing when i was listing the lifts and i figured that i should ask jason before doing it, but then i got lazy and just did it...but anyway those prices will be gone by the end of the night

thanks for the suggestions all:cheers2:
-Kyle
great job with the lift list...i just bought my RE 3.5" SF yesterday morning...great thing to have around!!

You really helped me decide what lift is right for me.
Thanks
nice set up, maybe you should make a section of budget boosts only, like shackles section
Don't forget the BDS lifts. Although you can't buy them to install yourself. They have to be installed via an authorized reseller, otherwise they will not accept their lifetime warranty on all parts.
