Ok, so now Im ready to raise my 98 explorer XLT 4dr 4x4. Heres the list of thing im about to order:

PA-883 Body Lift http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=PRA-PA-883&N=700+115&autoview=sku

Pro Comp Add-A-Leaf http://store.summitracing.com/partd...3120&N=700+400145+4294880273+115&autoview=sku

Warrior Extended Shackles

And whats TT(torsion twist)? Is it something I buy or do?
Also what size tires should i be able to fit?
Im looking to get 4" or lift out of this setup.
Any more suggestion?

The body lift and TT/Shackles are a good start. I dont think your going to need the aal's, with them the back might ride higher than the front. But a TT (Torsion Twist) is simply cranking the torsion bar bolts to raise the front of your X. However since yours is 4wd the max u should go is about 2" or else your CV Joints are gonna start giving you some problems and fast. If you do a search for Torsion Twist you will find more about it and with that lift you could proably fit some 33's with some trimming. This will help. Good luck.

so what do you think would be the best way to get 4"?

You will get 4" with a body lift and the TT/Shackle lift, probably closer to 5".

Body lift, shackles, TT will give you the ability to run 33x12.5 with maybe some minor trimming if any at all Or you can run 32x11.5.

BL=3", shackles=~2". The TT is what you do to bring the front level with the rear after the shackles, otherwise you'll end up with a rake. BTW the ~ is because everyone seems to get a little different amount of lift out to the shackles. I got 2" on the dot, but a lot of people get closer to 1 3/4. Good luck.
