Forgive me if this has been gone over before, but I was wondering what the pros/cons would be for lifting the rear of my X. Thinking either some 2" lift leaves from Carrier, or swapping out my monoleafs for 4drs and doing the Warrior shackle. Obviously the new leafs will cost more, but as far as anything else i have no idea. Any info would help me out. Thanks in advance.
 






the swap to 4 door leafs is a good one, you get lift from that , the custom springs would be spendy ,
there really is no cons to lifting it ,
 






other than raising your center of gravity there are no real cons I can think of. Beilive it or not mine actually handles better since it's been lifted with larger tires.
 






Haha, oops. What i meant to say was, whats the pros/cons of the custom leafs vs a 4dr pack and warrior shackle. Sorry. :rolleyes:
