Oh come on.. he just wants some help.


I do fine with my set up. I could do better with more money and parts though.

You should definitely focus on traction, ie locker!

33" tires dont need a ton of lift. 3-4" is plenty.

1" BL is a good idea for alot of other parts like gas tank and tummy skids.

Which should probably be your first investment with other armor parts.

1.Armor
2.Locker
3.Bigger
4.Better

you get it.

If you want cheap and capable, 2" spacers 1" body lift and quick discos you are good. 33" tires no problem and you have decent offroad capabilities.

Back in high school i wheeled a ton of places with that set up, not the BEST set up thats for sure but it will work for ya no problem. spacers run bout $80, body lift about $80-100 and a decent set of disconnects around 70 or so, not to mention you can usually find those parts used or alot cheaper

Edit: Or if you can find some factory rubicon coils, I threw some spacers, shocks and my old rubi coils i had on my jeep on a good friends and he ran 33s without a problem, wheeling it not just on road.

People have tried to help

Then I joke by saying you cant do a 3' lift and he gets pissy and put  {btt}
 Sorry if I mad anyone mad. But read my previous post.

Just making sure. I try not to make any one mad. But your jeep would look good with a 1" body and 3" susp. and you would do great with 33's. Im sure more people will chime in and let us know. Anyhow  {btt} What is that?

Chiming in late but better than never. I ran a 2" BB and 1" BL for years on 33's. Needless to say if you choose to disconnect the front axle and really flex you may need to adjust bump stops etc. I am running a trxus mud tire and it is a true 33" tire. I had to trim my fenders to flex and turn fully. For what you are looking for I would go this route. BBs are cheap and so are BLs. I ran this setup all over Tellico the first time I went. If you are careful and pick good lines you will be fine. I would also say get a locker in front or rear. I went with a full detroit so I have posi at all times. It's up to you but it depends on what you want to spend!! ;)

Basically if you want cheap but effective, my previous post has you set up.

I mean i even have a friend who ran a 3" body lift, 2" coil spacers, 35s and discos and he never had a problem there.



If anyone has experience with cheapest possible suspension lifts its me haha back in high school i went through probably about 3-4 different suspension set ups.  Gimme a little while and i'll post up some pics so you know what you are lookin at
Go dawgs!

2" suspension spacers, rubicon coils, teraflex discos, and rancho shocks were all i had in suspension at the time.  Now i did still have the 3" body that was on there when i bought the jeep in these pics.  Body lifts are fine but i wouldn't go more than 1" in that area 3" is no good.







3" body lift, 2" spacers and t-flex discos on 35s on my friends jeep.




Also one of my best friends got the rubicon coils i had off of my jeep when i put the 4" suspension on, he ran 2" spacers, rubi coils and my old pro comp shocks w/ 33s no problems at all.  Unfortunately i do not have a pic of his old TJ
