Another Lift Question

Utah Jeeper · 01-27-2005, 05:09 PM

I am going to lift the Jeep before the Safari.

I am only wanting to go with a small lift.

I am looking at the Daystar and the RE BB

What are the advantages and disadvantages to both.

Also will I need to lower the T-case?

As of right now I have the factory Rubi Springs on.

I'd just got with what's cheapest for a TJ BB. A couple people have had problems with RE spacers though (or maybe it was just one person but I remember seeing the pics). A piece of polyurethane isn't going to be too much different between different companies.

edit: may want to consider rusty's too [img]graemlins/iono.gif[/img]

anyone but RE bb, the spacers are too soft

Thanks I was leaning towards RE.

Do I need shocks also?

probably not right away, unless you want it to flex really well. since the shocks will limit the travel some.
