Hey everyone, I have a 01 xj 2wd (had to trade my 77 cj7 for something with a backseat because I am a new dad). I just got done purchasing some coils and blocks to raise my xj 3"...In the process, I got a smoking deal on tires/rims that I just couldn't pass up. They are 285/75/16's. So I picked them up and was planning on trimming my fenders. I don't do a lot of extreme offroading, but I do go camping and like going exploring on some of the trails.
My first question is this: Do I stick with the 3" lift and trim my fenders so that my tires will work, or do I go to a 4.5" lift? I can get the leaf packs and shocks (already have the 3" coil and 1.75" spacer") for a decent price.
2nd question: If I go with the 4.5" lift, what else would be a necessity for this to work? Remember its 2wd and I have the coils and can get the shocks/leaf packs. Any advice would be much appreciated....
