OK. Searched, read through much of what I found, and could use some opinions from anyone who may have been down this road before.
The rig is a 2000 Limited, NP242, AW4, Up Country. With the previous XJ ('01 Sport), the plan had been to net between three and four inches of lift. However, the new one already sits taller due to the Up Country package. Thing is, I need to end up with the same amount of lift - 3"-4" - over non-Up Country stock. This is mainly due to lousy clearance pulling into my apartment's garage.
Previously, the two kits up for consideration were DPG's OME 3" lift and the RE6025 from Rubicon Express. However, I have two concerns in selecting these:
- Does the OME kit work with the Up Country package?
- The RE kits are known for netting more lift than they advertise. Anyone running one on an Up Country care to comment? If I decide to go this route, would I be better off opting for the 2" kit and substituting full leafs (mine are going to go fairly soon, so AALs are out)?
I'm well aware of SYE requirements, etc. - just need an opinion on the Up Country running either of these lifts.
