Post by: sidekick 4x4 on May 21, 2006, 08:31:04 PM
i want to do this 3" body lift http://www.zuwharrie.com/content/view/11/27/1/0/
it says you need 4 Jeep XJ or TJ 2" coil spring spacers and im not sure if you really need them or its just to get a little suspension lift. so if any one knows were to get those or some thing that will do the same let me know.

The 2"inch coilspacers are for the suspinion lift (put on coils and raise the suspinion)

I got my coil spacers from Haws Strictly suzuki
I got 2.5 in. of lift front and back
sky manufacturing makes some;as does rocky road
Just remember to drop your front diff. if your going over 1.5 in.
your camber will be off also  \      /   
I fit 30x9.5 fine they just rub the frame at lock both sides- if I had less backspaced wheels that would take care of that
heres a pic of my cv angles with no drop brackets

talk to digger here on the board, he was making coil spacers for a while. they were inexpensive enough for me to buy a pair "for emergency" ;D

For the rear I've heard you could use honda accord springs that yield about 2 in of lift. That would be better than spacers. The front i'm not sure what you could use. Grand vitarra springs. Then you would have better flex and you wouldn't have to worry about loosing a rear spring at full flex.
Oh yeah the spacers I got from Hawks- I had to grind a lot of the inside of them for them to fit in the front. The front was a pain. The rear worked fine.

sorry, I don't think he has it listed on the web. ;D I live near merlin so I just picked them up from his shop. I would just give him a call or e-mail him. I know he has them though cause I got a set from him.
I just remembered I heard of guys of using shoppong cart wheels and that works fine. YOu want to do some late night scavenging and check it out and see if it works. Hope that helps.
