Alright, thank you. I'm just worried that the back of the truck will be high up than the front... Do you think that would happen?

So, S10s, Blazers, Dakotas, and Commanches should work. I just need to look and see if the leafs are about the same length or about the same lenght?

Ok guys I have one for you cerokee experts. I put the 3.5 lift in about 8 months ago. I went with new springs and shocks all the way around. Afterward I had death wobble and pretty bad drive line vibes. A transfer case drop kit took care of both.
I love the slight rake that its at now and want to keep that look. My only problem is my rear shackles hit when she is loaded up with the family and camping gear. Also my fronts rub pretty easy. The 3.5 backspacing put em out a wee bit to far in the front. Solution you ask? Obviously go higher!
My questions:
*Will longer shackles do anything for my rubbing issue?
*Is there a kit that actually gives an even 1.5 all the way around? (i dont want ADL)
*Is there a cross member out there that is designed to drop the case a bit with out loosing ground clearance? Or do I have to fab that up?
*Are those rear shackle relocaters what I really need? If so will that adjust my height also?
PS Im a master tech and have a shop to use, I just greatly appreciate input from this forum.
Thanks in advance.

My questions:
*Will longer shackles do anything for my rubbing issue?
What's rubbing? The shackles are bottoming out? Longer shackles will help with that but not fix the issue.
*Is there a kit that actually gives an even 1.5 all the way around? (i dont want ADL)
A poly spacer and a Shackle will even lift it 2 inches.
*Is there a cross member out there that is designed to drop the case a bit with out loosing ground clearance? Or do I have to fab that up?
No, how do you intend to lower the t-case without loosing ground clearance? Do away with the T-case drop crap and purchase a Slip Yoke Eliminator.
*Are those rear shackle relocaters what I really need? If so will that adjust my height also?
Yes, that will fix your main problem. Yes they will raise the rear of your Jeep but not by much.

Sure a lot of Master Techs in here today.
Trim the front and it won't rub...
