How big of lift can I use on my 95 YJ and not have to extend brake lines, lower TC, lengthen DS, etc.. I want to be able to use it offroad but it is my daily commuter.

I am thinking about a 2.5" to 3.5" lift. Any tire suggestions?[addsig]

Hey rtoney9! Check out the forum I put up titled "when is the drive line too much for stock parts". It's on page one. Check it out.[addsig]

2.5" is about max with no other changes.[addsig]

Out of those things that you DON"T want to do, the brake lines are the biggest PITA, droppin the t-case and switching driveshafts is not that hard really...

DO NOT try to extend your brake lines by attempting the cheap way by patching your hose with another piece of hose. It will take you 4 days, a few propane tanks for garage heating, lots of cursing, lots of trips to the hardware store, and a few nights of no sleep before you come to a realization that it's the wrong way... at least thats what happened to us. Buy longer lines or extend the hardline with compression fittings... happy lifting[addsig]
