Anyone have any prior experience with this lift? I'm aiming for about 3" of lift.

 

This was the first time that I've heard about that XJ Budget Lift...

 

well the results look awesome. It would be nice to hear other people's results. i could totally buy an adjustable trac-bar with the money i'd save doing this lift instead of a new lift kit.

Anyone have any experiences with this lift kit?

 

I'm running a bastard leaf pack in the rear using s10 leafs. Happened to fidn some used 4.5" coils for the front but I was going to go to the yard and pull the v8 zj coils until I found them. I have a shackle lift aswell to level it out for the total 4.5"

3" is about maxed out on the stock CA's much more and you need to go aftermarket.

 

im going to do one in about 3 weeks, just need the front coils and i found them but they are lift coils not zj or fords

 

going 2 do that in about 2 weeks.

 

I am the one that linked this page in another post to show how to do a lift cheep. Heres what I wrote:

Dont whaste your money buying some companys kit. Go out and build your own. Especialy if money is an issue. Below is a pic of the kit I put on my wifes new trail rig. Its a 96 with a basterd packs and zj coil springs that got me 3" of lift. All together I spent $30 bucks at the junk yard for her lift.

This is a link to how to do a super cheep lift. I have done similer lifts on at least a dozen xjs not including the 3 I own and they work better than anything I have bought. And each one was under $100 and they got me 3 to 5 inches of lift depending on what I was shooting for.

I have been runing these lifts since the xj came out. The reason I put the link on it is because it pretty much explains every thing basicly how I would. I just dont have to type it. I have tryed every lift out there and on an xj with 3 to 4 inches this works the best. Because its the same kit that other companys sell you but for 1/4 the price.

 

Here is what it looks like at right now. Still not done with it yet. 3 inch lift, mild fender trim, 31/10.5/15 bfgoodrich a/t on stock rims, and bed lined sides. The back looks a little low but its not. I have 4 sand bags in the back for my truck, I have not taken out yet.

 

im hoprfullydion the s10 springs in the rear and zj coils and spacers in the front this weekend
