Im getting close to purchasing my lift kit. Im leaning heavily to the Iron Rock 4" AAL kit. Keeping in mind my present leafs are in good shape.

Xj is a Stock 98 with 235s but I have some 17" Moabs with 265/70s in waiting. Im pretty new to 4x4 off road stuff. Ive been a drag racer my whole life. What would you do?

*Upgrade to full leaf pack for an extra $260

*Upgrade to Bilsteins for extra $250.

*Upgrade to IRO adj double shear TB $200. With this I could probably swing the Hack n Tap SYE.

Trackbar would be a smart move.

Second would be full leafs, I'm very happy so far with my 3.5" IRO leafs, though my next set will probably be deavers

Funny cuz I only intended on the full leafs or bilsteins as options but as I was typing the track bar popped in my head.

You will need to do all three eventually
Can't speak to iro, as I haven't run their stuff
But there's no reason you need to get everything from them

I hear ya. Reason I would lean to getting it all from IRO is a good discount when you add parts to the kit

IRO just like many other companies have some good parts, some bad.
That said I think they have the best double shear trackbar (for the price) out there.

As stated you will need all at some point, but the trackbar will be #1 in my opinion

OME stuff rides very nice. Consider dpgoffroad for the kit, unless you want to BIY.
