Who makes a good 4 in lift? I bought my wife a 2000 tj she want's it lifted and 33 in tires. We will take it on mild trail rides it needs to flex decent. She will drive it on the road mostly. She want's it to ride good and drive good on the road. I have looked on here and read some but i want your opion on the lift you are running. Thanks Chris.

You can never go wrong with the Rubicon Express 4.5 inch lift, but request the 3.5 inch springs. Lots of flex, nice on road manners. Will fit the 33's without problems. You will probably gain over 4 inches of actual lift with the 3.5 inch springs as RE under states the amount of lift.

It can be done. You'll have to accept a little rubbing at full lock. There are about 5 TJ's running around here set up that way. This was mine many moons ago. 2" BB and ProComp 33x12.50 MT's

I say go with the FT 3" Basic lift. I run it on my Jeep and I love the the way it rides. I have 33" BFG MT's .
I have the RE 4.5 Springs on my kids jeep and those are the stiffest jaw pounding SOB's I have ever felt.

I'd add a 1" body lift to that budget boost to run 33's. My 31's rub alot, more than I'm actually liking right about now. BB only. 1" bodylift going on as soon as I get my brown dog MML in.
