No, I don't lick fish.
Help please! this is the look I'm going for. I have a stock 1994 Sport, Manual transmission. I'm curious as to what sized lift this is and what sized tires and wheels will I need? Also, in addition to just the lift, tires, and wheels. What other changes am I looking at making. thanks so much!
lol... sure was.

went with the tried and true OME 3+" consisting of OME 930 coils w/RE 1.75" spacer and CS033RB leaf packs with no leafs removed, rustys 3" control arms, rustys adj trackbar, stock uppers....and 245/75s duratracs. rides great, nowhere near as stiff of a ride as I believed it would be

HavenSOV's Bertha. '91 Laredo
4.5in Rough Country with full leaf packs. Fat Bobs Garage, $650
Cragar V5 Steel wheels w/ center caps. Summit Racing, $270
Definity Dakota M/T 31x10.5 15. Pep Boys, $110 each, with buy 3 get 1 free
JCR Stage 2 sliders. JCR Offroad, $220
JCR TC Belly skid. JCR Offroad, $160
4.5in Rough Country lift: Great service from Fat Bobs, even over nighted some pieces that were missing. The lift itself was easy to install. Only problems I ran into was more due to age of my XJ then the kit. Only thing I would like to see different is maybe only 3in leafs with 1.5in shackles.
Cragars V5: Summit has great shipping time, might just be where I am but I usually get my order in 2-3 days with slandered shipping. Also, Summit only charged me 12 bucks for shipping on the whole order. I just baught this, let me beat them for a while and I will update this...
Dakota M/T: I am very happy with these tires. The price was right, and with the deal that Pep Boys does it came out even cheaper. These are made by Cooper Tire for Pep Boys as a shop brand (only available from Pep Boys). They are extremely close to the construction of the Cooper STT tire. As a side note, for a mud tire they have a very low road growl. This was nice as I have to drive 3 hours to wheel...
JCR:
Sliders: These have saved my sides more time then I can think. My only issue with them is finding the right paint to keep them from rusting but that will take the abuse of the trail.
TC Belly Skid: I have always like the look of the TC skid that Cherokee nation used to make, but they are hard to find since they are no longer in business. So I asked JCR to make one up for me. Same design, but welded instead of bent, and the added a front gusset.
