That's the lift I have on my 93 but I have a Ford 8.8 rear diff. It's a little spongey but not bad

Great work man! I learn so much from you. Your patience is awesome as well. Inspirational bro!)

Thanks for the comment! I appreciate it!

As a yj daily driver,I don't have experience with rc but I did pro comp 2.5 lift and the front springs were terribly stiff, the rears were not bad but wore out quickly, I ended up putting wagoneer springs up front for a 2 inch stretch and building spring packs for the rear, just put some Bilstein 5100 on and it's amazing,nice jeep ...cheers

Was the transfer case drop the only addition you had to make to the lift kit? Does it seem to ride and drive fine after the install? I'm looking to add this kit to my 95 and am just trying to figure out what additional items I should buy. I won't be doing any heavy off road use with it, so I'm looking for a decent ride and drivability. So, I wasn't sure if I needed to worry about bump stops, brake line extenders, etc. I appreciate the video!

[@tophersgarage9841]

Transfer case drop was all I needed. I did add extended brake lines but that was more for off-road use and flexing the suspension out.

How is the lift doing? Any issues come up since installing? I am looking at getting the same kit for my 95 yj

[@tophersgarage9841]

The lift is great! No issues at all! I know people say lift springs ride rougher but coming from 30 year old worn out springs these rough country springs ride much better! Keep in mind, you may need a transfer case drop! I got one from Amazon.

Very nice! What size are your tires?

[@tophersgarage9841]

31x10.5x15!

[@pol1970]

My 1995 YJ has a 4 inch lift with 33s (I bought like that 3 years ago). I am thinking of downsizing. How are you liking this kit?

[@tophersgarage9841]

So far I like it a lot!

[@mariomarino8079]

Any backspacing?

[@isaachaberman8541]

did you need to get new driveshafts?

[@tophersgarage9841]

Stock driveshaft but did do a t case drop

[@jackrussellville]

Are those your original seats?

[@tophersgarage9841]

They were! I have since changed them out
