I am planning on liffting my CJ, but I have ? about which lift kit I should use. I've read where there are bolt on kits so you can run the wider wrangler leaf springs, is this mod worth the money and if so could I just order a lift kit for a wrangle. I was leaning toward the 2.5 soft ride lift from skyjacker. This is my first jeep and it already has 35's and a homemade shackle lift 3" body lift. It looks fine but performs bad. Highway driving is a gamble at speeds over 60mph. Please help, I also have the article on the flashing  headlight problem, Thanks for all the help. great site     JC

The kit I know of is from Rubicon Express. It uses YJ springs. See their web site at: rubiconexpress.com  They are the best bang for the buck and the quality is excellent. Their kits are also one of the most complete kits on the market. I believe they offer 2.5" and 4.5" kits. You could ditch the 3" body lift and go with the 4.5 spring kit for a 100% better ride and set-up than what your currently running now. Although you will need driveline modifications with the 4.5" kit which requires more $$$ to spend on the heep.


 


GOOD LUCK!
