Post subject:  Budget XJ lift
Spent yesterday budget lifting a friends XJ. Over the last several months we have been gathering used donated parts and a couple cheap purchases. All told I think he has under $200 in this about 3" lift and that includes 4 new shocks and new rear shackles.

Home made rear bar pin eliminator (upper shock mount) using stock rear sway bar bracket.

Relocated front brake lines to lengthen them and keep tire from hitting.

I had donated my time and a set of 5 used 245/75 MTR's, Nolan (hoku5) donated a set of stock KJ wheels, guys on NAXJA donated leaf pack w/ AAL, coil springs, sway bar discos, ZJ steering, front tow hooks, etc.
This should improve the off road prowess of the rig and it sure came out looking good.
