that's my 2000 XJ Ltd. I'm about to finish up my freshman year in college and this summer I want to work a little bit harder so I can make enough to lift her. she just looks sad without a lift.
I've got my sights set on a RE 3.5" Super-ride with 31x10.5s with maybe some American Racing 15x8s. Basically, I do a little offroading here and there, some times for fun, sometimes trying to get to places for my summer construction jobs. I've learned that when I want to do something, it's always better to go all out and spend the money now instead of later so i'm avoiding the rough country lifts etc.
Because I travel between school and back, I need to be able to go freeway speeds with no vibrations.
Couple questions though.
1. Do i need to purchase ANYTHING in addition to this lift, tires, and rims?
2. What shocks should I buy with this lift? Are nitrogen ones worth it?
3. I was looking into treadwrights and I've read mostly great reviews and I could save some major dough by buying those, but my main concern is my safety. They are safe, right? anyone on here use em?
4. Also, this is a total noob question, but how do I find out what axel i have (i have the selectable 4wd (2wd, 4parttime, 4fulltime, 4lo)
thanks alot, i've been looking around the forum a bit and searching, but before I pull the trigger and spend some coin, i want to make sure.
