Any other recommendations?

But those will probably rub a few things on stock wheels, LCAs. Could always get steelies.
But that's more $

Not to be a jerk but it is sort of a faux pas to mention it around here, best of luck to you

What?! You mean that Poly Performance body kit I paid 900 dollars for is useless?!

axle shake/vibration
Hi, kinda new here and couldn't find this on the thread.
I put a 4.5" RC lift on my 97 xj. I put 6 degree shims on the rear axle to improve the differential U-joint angle, but I still have a slight vibration above 40mph or so. My buddie has a very similar lift, and has never had any vibration problem... Doesn't seem like a steep enough angle to need a SYE. Am I missing something else in the drive train?

IM GONNA LIFT THE JEEP...Finally. Back space question
Morning Jeepers!
-2000 XJ.
-Going to install 4.5 rough country lift
-32 11.5 15 KM 2's
What backspace do I need on the wheels? I don't want them to stick out very much. I can handle the rubbing when turning.
Thanks all!
