I'd say it depends on how many rooms you're doing in your house.

I have a few questions for my up coming lift.

1: Do i need to shim my leafs OME 3.5 inch leafs and if so ho much?
2: whats a good check list for going to a 3.5 inch lift, I already have the springs, u bolts, shocks, new track bar, a new rear brake line for a yj, and disconnects for the sway bar.
3: I've read about relocating the front brake lines, is that enough for the amount of lift I'm going for? If not what is a cheaper alternative to the pricey extended ones.
4: Are new control arms necessary at the moment or will I be able to make it til tax season just fine without them?

Thanks in advanced for any help yall can provide.

you may need an SYE and new driveshaft. probably will. youre control arms will be fine. and at my 3" lift my front brake lines are perfectly fine with plenty of room for flex.
