You can get another speedo gear, but it's hardly worth it unless you re-gear. I run 33s and my speedo is only off 5mph at highway speeds. It's easy to adjust your brain to. Yours will be off only a couple mph.

X2 also the big point of larger Rims used to be bigger breaks, and clearance for otk ... Just saying

Ok ordered my lift, 2" coil spacers and 2" add a leaf also gonna do 1.5" gm pickup truck leaf spring shackles since my rear is sagging. what can I expect to break or need to replace?

The leaf springs.

Rear upper shock bolts usually break. Everything else should be ok.

looking into getting a lift for my 99 xj sport 4x4 its still stock other than the motor, low miles, and i have 30x9.5 a/t tires on it now and it looks good other than my sagging back leaf springs. i want to go to 31x10.5 pro comp tires and i was thinking either a 3 inch or a 4 inch i dont really know what they will look like though so i need a reference if anyone can help out.

also everyone i see for the most part has a rough country lift on there xj. i know there really expensive but i was thinking a BDS lift, a way better quailty ride considering i dont get to go off road as much as i want. i dont want a flex lift either. suggestions on a good mud or a/t tire that is somewhat quiet is nice too.

open to any suggestions and help thanks.

If road manners is what you're after it's hard to beat Old Man Emu components. DPG Offroad sells hybrid 3-4" OME kits.

I'd stay away from BDS - my buddy had one of their lifts on his TJ and 4 months later every single bushing was shot and needed to be replaced.

Rubicon Express Super-Ride kit with leaf packs. I think it's 3 1/2".

Why does the RC track bar say it needs a drop pitman arm? The others don't say that just wondering

Lowrange2

It's no different than any other... the only reason you need a dropped pitman arm is if the frame side mount is a lot lower.

Oh ok I thought that's what it was so that they have a good relationship

thanks for the heads up on BDS, my friend works at a truck place that sells BDS alot and he said they have some good stuff, he said there shocks are the best thing really they have a good ride to them.

so old man emu has a smooth good ride and good quality? im looking mostly for a road kit but be able to go on a trail and muddin and still hang in there, not really looking for all the super xtreme flex and trail kits, ill check into OME

Lowrange2

OME is great stuff. It's pretty spendy tho. You get what you pay for.

how big of a lift can you go before getting new drive lines?
