Question,

Is it a 14" suspension lift or just 14" higher than stock ride hieght bc of the tire size.

I.E. I have a 4.5" lift but overall i gained 7" because i increase my tire size

I don't understand why you all think its ok to cobble together a rig if it's "just for mud". If I was building a rig for mud, I wouldn't do anything like that.

Its a pretty rough ride, but it still handles ok. i do alot of trail rideing in it, but you have to understand, i live in florida, and its 90% flat around here. but we built it for the mud mainly.

I'm more of a trail rider so I'm not real big on the super lifted XJ's, but for mudding, that thing is AWESOME! Nice job on it!
