86FUBAR Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 ok i got an 05 rubicon unlimited that is gona be in need of some new tires soon and instead of puting some stock tires on it i wanted to bump up to some 32" tires to kinda make it look more porportioned . though i could buy a budget boost for it i thought i might be able to fit my old 4"lift mj springs up front but i couldnt remember how much lift if any i could get by doing this and i remember hearing it here some were . i tried searching but couldnt come up with anything .o and the goal is around 2-2.5" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would GUESS that you would end up with 4" if you put them on. Put them on and take a look at it. It doesn't take too long to put them on and look at it but I would guarantee it'll net more than you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Sam Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 IIRC TJ coils are 1" shorter than XJ coils........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawk Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I talked to a Rubicon Express tech once that said XJ coils on a TJ would lift the TJ 1" more than the XJ. Take it for what it's worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BWMJ Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 My brother has a 2" spacer lift and a 1" body lift in his TJ and clears 33x12.5 MTs with a nice stance. Cheaply too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
