Fugatt2DrXJ

Look like soft 8. But alot of different company make them. Cragar, Mickey Thompson (I think), American racing, and a few others.

dukie564

thanks I found the center cap was a procomp one, and went from there. Turns out they're probably Procomp Series 98 Rock Crawler wheels.

They're sorta a generic design so alot of people make them.

Does anyone know about using 3" zone hydro shocks on 4" or 4.5" of lift.

bhennessee1

Yea, don't do it...

Nperryman

Dang. I just put 31's on and they rub my flares while turning. I trimmed a little already but there is no way ill get any articulation without taking my flares and bumper encaps off, and then trimming the flares.

I want a 3-3.5 inch lift. I've been looking at different kits and I was wondering how much I could save putting the parts together myself. If I got s10 leafs and separately bought front springs, shocks. Can anybody give me a list of all the parts to do a lift?

-s10 leafs
-4 shocks
-2 front springs
-longer brake lines?
-???????

You might save 150 dollars using s10 leafs. New 3 inch leafs are like 200 for the pair. Coils will be about 100 dollars, shocks vary too much depending on what you want, and you won't need front brake lines, just the back which will be about 20-30 dollars, and you will probably want new lcas, because the stock ones are flimsy lcas are anywhere from like maybe 150-250 you will also need extended swaybar links or disconnects, anywhere from like 50 to 150 dollars depending on what you want. You will need u bolts, about 30 dollars. You will probably need some degree shims, about 15 dollars and you might need a transfer case drop or sye you won't know until you lift your jeep.

Put them on your stock wheels and you should be fine. For some reason alot of people on here say you can use after market wheels but you can't without trimming.

Which adjustable track bar should I get? I have a 3.5 inch rubicon express lift.

Nperryman

Can't do that. I just bought 4 brand new steel wheels and got them mounted and balanced.

Hey thanks. I'm planning on just getting a hack and tap SYE before I even start the lift. I think I'll be getting a bigger lift in few years anyway so I'll go ahead and do it.

I'm leaning toward Rubicon Express 3.5 Super Ride. Its got full leafs and everything you list except shocks. Looks like the only difference with the Super Flex is the disconnect sway bars. Do you think the Ride is a good starting point.

Anything else you think I would need to get after the kit? Heres what it has-

• 1 Sway Bar Disconnect Adapters
• 1 Sway Bar End Links
• 1 Front Coil Spring Set
• 2 Leaf Spring
• 1 U-bolt Kit (Dana 35/44)
• 1 Brake Hose Rear
• 1 Pair SR2 Lower Front Control Arms

Need to get shocks, maybe shims, adjustable tracbar, extended front brake lines, steering stabilizer is optional

Edit: Also the super- ride kit is great, i love mine
