I have seen all types of lifts on here(make, size etc...) I haven't seen this topic covered, sorry if I've missed it. I just decided on my next set of tires(revos), but before I go and get the 245/70/16's with no lift, I have to know: What is the least expensive lift I can purchase that will give me a little more ground clearance. I do not do any heavy offroading. I want the clearance for driving in New England snow, and the light trail or unpaved road. I want the lift primarily for the look with the new tires. I don't want a lift that is so flimsy, that it actually takes away from my Jeeps offroadability in stock form. Any help with type, make, price or size(1.5 or 2.5) would be greatly appreciated! Thanx-Joe

Also, I've heard people talk about a spacer lift...would that be the way to go for me, given what I want it for? Thanx again in advance-Joe

Daystar for a spacer lift www.boulderbars.com. This has recived the best reviews so far. I have also seen them in action off road and they do work.

I just put a Rusty's coil lift on and the ride is sooooo much better than stock. If your shocks/struts are even close to needing replacement I would highly reccomend the Rusty's coil lift.

Call ALL Js and tell them what you want to do and what you can spend they will fix you right up. They have more than just the Frankenlift and the Daystar lift . You can kind of mix and match if you want. I went with the OME heavy duty springs Rancho struts/ shocks, rides great

Thank you very much for the info guys...I'll look into all options u suggested! I only have 16,000 miles on her now, so I feel the spacer lift may be the way to go, but I'll price em all. Thanks for the advice!
