My 2004 Limited AWD's tires are very old so i decided now's the time to have a little fun with aftermarket mods.
I have 265/75/16 tires on 0 offset wheels ordered. Now all i want is a mild lift by way of either strut spacers or body lift. Those are my two choices due to low cost but one seems to be a heavier investment in labor but that's ok if it clearly is the better choice than the other. I saw some of the how to's here and it seems body lifts take 8-12 hours?
I mostly drive around town but i'd like it to be capable of weekend fun keeping up with my bro's stock Jeep Rubicon. Just low and slow stuff. I don't want to break my daily driver.
I have been googling so much I decided to just ask if you guys can recommend a solid product to get a mild lift and the pro's and con's of choosing either spacer lift or body lift. Also a little detail in the install, labor and any specialty tools that it requires.
I have a small budget so everything must be DIY as possible. I'd like to keep it around $200
