how much lift ??

[swexplorer]

Hello explorers.

Im wondering how much i can lift my x without having to alter to much with drivetrain and such

If you mean regearing you differentials then I would only lift it about 2inches and use 31 inch tires. If you go bigger with tires you will want to regear.

2" is probably all you will wnat to crank your torsion bars.... after that you get into the expensive IFS lifts and those arent too bad but will require driveline modifications like driveshafts, extended brake lines, of course there will be regearing the axles, larger tires, etc.....

2" with a TT in front and Shackles in the rear.

I hear the Warrior Shackles are the best ones....
