Lifting my jeep more

[MjAllTheWay]

Well i have 2inch spacers up front and I'm getting ZJ V8 coils up front and in the back i have a long shackle but when i get the ZJ coils i will have to do something to the back what can i do thats kinda cheap

[Pete M]

AAL. hellcreek makes one that should bump it an inch. Comes with the hardware you'll need too (except U-bolts)

[james750]

Looks like you've got a minor case of inchitis. Almost everyone on here has it. It only gets worse. Just go to a full 6.5'' LA kit and SOA rear.

[MjAllTheWay]

Ya i do but i think thats all i want to do i hope

[MjAllTheWay]

I can't find ware the AAL is for the comanche

[Pete M]

it's possible it isn't on the site yet. But I know he's got 'em. See his post in the classifieds and maybe send him a PM or email. :thumbsup:

Will a Cherokee AAl 2inch work on my Comanche

[ComancheKid45]

An XJ AAL will work for about half the advertised height on an MJ..... example 3" XJ AAL = approx. 1.5" on an MJ ;)

[MjAllTheWay]

well that sucks i wish it would jest have worked

[ComancheKid45]

Throw on the ZJ coils and see how much lift you acctually gain...

 

I threw a set on ontop of my 1.5" BB and gaind .75" of lift, basically leveled the truck out....i have a set of 3" XJ AALs in my garage waiting for an oppertunity somewhere someday, but they werent needed.

 

next to my XJ (only shackle in rear stock height otherwise)

If i got a hold of some Comanche leafs and i cut them up would that work as an AAL even if they are used

Yes but that will probably give you more lift than you need. The ZJ coils are going to give you about an inch in the front. Using cut-off MJ main leaves as AALs should give you between 1-1/2" and 2" in the rear.

 

Rancho's XJ/MJ AAL is rated at 2-1/2" but that's for the XJ. Rancho told me it lifts an MJ about 1-1/2".

WEll i went a different route and went with lift coils and 2 inch blocks so i have a good 3 to maby 4 inch lift in the front so you think i should be ok with used Comanche leafs

[one_bad_MJ]

spoa in the rear is the way to go auto 6" of lift

 

i just out 2" coil spacers on my mj last night to even it out. my coils measure 28" when out of the jeep but the rate sucks and they sag

Unless your already SOA then blocks are gonna do nothing for you but lower it 2" :fool: :dunce:

i think when he says blocks he really means coil spacers.

[MjAllTheWay]

Ya i meant Coil spacers and i don't really want 6inchs of lift.

[MjAllTheWay]

Ok Guys i need help i now I'm a dumba$$ but i dident look to see if the big eye goes to the front of the leaf springs or if the little eye goes forward.

[Pete M]

big eye goes towards the front.

[MjAllTheWay]
