It only rubs when turning very sharp out of my driveway. Doesnt rub on level ground. The bb is 2" coil spacer and 2" shackle. It now has zj coils with the spacers to give it 3.5" up front and a XJ bastard pack with the shackles to give it 4" in rear. I used the main spring with ends cut off and the next leaf down(#2 leaf) and the over load leaf with the rest of the factory set. I have 2 overload leafs stacked and seem to work very well with this setup. The total lift on the spring pack was only 2" above stock(4" above the beyond level sagging leafs). Rides great. No track bar adjustments or brake lines extensions need so far. Shocks were needed. Rough country 4" lift shocks on ebay 4 for 99.00 shipped. Great deal.

Pics of 2" budget boost.
