YJ suspension uses leaf springs on all four corners. Aftermarket YJ lift springs and shackles are available from Skyjacker and others.
At minimum 2.5 inches with trimming, or a clean 3.5-inch lift. ICON Stage 2 or Stage 3 systems are built for 35s.
Spacer lifts add height by stacking above the stock spring. Coilover systems replace the entire spring/shock assembly. Coilovers give better travel, tune-ability, and ride quality at higher cost.
At 2.5 inches or more, adjustable control arms are strongly recommended to correct caster and pinion angle. Rock Krawler makes the best JL arms on Bullstrap.
