Treadwright used to be a horrible company, but they changed ownership and changed their name about 4 years ago. All good reviews since then.

SYE for a 4.5" lift???
What is the max distance that you could lift without the slip yoke eliminator, thinking of installing a 4.5" rough country lift on my 2000 XJ, 4.0L but am not sure if I can get away with that much lift and not replacing the sye...
Thx in advance!

With a 2000 you'll most likely need something to fix your driveline angles. Sye would be your best bet. Tc drop would work but...they just take away ground clearance

A crap load better winter tire than the Hankook road tred (courtesy of the original owner) I had last winter lol.
Probably the best thing going for them is the $82/ea mounted price you can get 'em for At Wally World.
...oh. If you want to see what they look like on a stock lift, click my photos.
...actually, that's with worn out springs... so negative lift lol.
