I've tried to find all the piece for my 2" lift and have a little list in my head of what I think I want to do. So far I've compiled this:


For the front: a set of 2" lift coils from rusty's offroad

For the rear: a set of crown medium duty leaf springs, will get you about 1.5" lift, plus a rusty's .75" shackle

And for shocks, I haven't really decided yet. I might just go for a set of rancho shocks since I can get those for decently cheap through my work. All of the little things I figure I'll wait until the time comes to deal with those since I can't foresee what will happen when I go to put the lift on.

Couple of ideas for you.

  1. Convert your AC compressor to an air compressor

  2. Upgrade your suspension (as /u/aussie_jason suggested) to the upcountry option.
    This is a stock spring package that directly replaces your worn out springs and gives you around 1.5 inches of lift for less than $250. I did this to my 94 XJ and i can tell you that'll help make some room for for those 30s. It's also easily boosted to a 3 to3.5 inch lift for around $90 more.

    Rear leaves


    Edit: Look into getting longer bump stops as they'll help keep your tires out of the fenders. Here are the ones I picked up.

You can find new springs that give you an inch or two of lift (from stock), but that don't require any additional suspension changes. That's what I'm planning to do with mine. Ill see if I can dig up a link.

Edit- right here:

I think those are the right ones, but double check. And don't forget about new bushings for the leaf springs.

This is what I did a couple years back.

Rear:
This rear spring is supposedly the same as what was on the UpCountry package and adds 1" lift.

You will need spring bushings as well. I went with these.
Energy Suspension 2.2109G Spring Bushing for Jeep/Cherokee/Comanche


I added lift shackles for another 1".
JKS OGS651 Rear Shackle Kit for Jeep XJ/MJ


Front:
This is also supposedly equivalent to the UpCountry package.
Moog CC782 Coil Spring Set

I used these to replace the stock isolators (which were shot). There are 4 to a package in case you need to use them all to level the vehicle out.

I'd say I ended up with about 3" of lift, and it has visibly settled about 1" in close to 2yrs.

Costs were about $400, not taking into account all the little stuff associated with installing everything.

No issues w/ driveline vibe, but that seems to vary from person to person.

Currently running 31's and at this low a height, they will rub on the lower control arms. You can tweak the steering stops to prevent this, but I ended up getting spacers to push the wheels out and stop the rubbing. This added another $200 to the costs.

No regrets with the current set-up, but if I had thought it through I would have just planned for 33s and done things differently. Once you upsize the tires, you only want to keep going up. LOL

I am pretty well versed in jeeps, I've done several lifts and more than a few suspensions on various vehicles. I have the tools and know how to do everything, just as an FYI.

I am pretty set about getting the Zone 3" lift or possibly the RE 3.5" super-ride lift... regardless, that doesn't matter. the point is that both are available with AAL (long leaf) or full leaf pack.

Alright, so here is my question:

I've noticed that if I were to buy the Crown OEM-spec leaf pack (link below) and either AAL kit listed above, it would actually be cheaper than buying the kit with the full leaf pack included.

Can anyone see a reason why NOT to but a new Crown leaf pack, get an AAL as listed above and add it to that new pack, and save myself a little coin? Or is there a better reason to buy the full pack with the lift kit for the extra money?
