Hello everyone, I'm new to the offroading community and just purchased a 2000 TJ Wrangler. I have a few inquiries. I know there are several posts on this subject, but I couldn't find any definitive answers, and it seems that everyone has different ideas on brands. Click to enlarge... 1) I'd want to purchase a 4 inch suspension lift.

The Jeep Wrangler is a vehicle that is manufactured "body on frame." The body mounts that isolate the body and affix it to the frame degrade with time. When this occurs, it is typical for vibrations to travel from the frame to the body of the Jeep, causing the Jeep to not sit properly on the frame. The good news is that you can simply replace the body mounts on your Wrangler. You may also install a body lift to get more space for wider tires without installing a suspension lift.
This is a Rough Country 3.25" suspension lift with 33" 12.5 Duratracs. When the sway bars are removed, the fenders rub terribly, so I had to remove the fender flares until I could install the 1.25" BL, and I also had to add spacers since the control arms rub before complete turn stops. The good: off road, these 33"s have made an Enormous difference over the 31x10.5s I was running; I was amazed at how much of a difference it made; off road, it is lot more nimble, stable, and capable of leaping huge obstacles in a few of bounds haha. Seriously, 33's are worth the effort, but don't be shocked if the 2" increase is insufficient. the rubbing after 4 hours in an off-road parkI'm adding the Rough Country 1.25" BL to what I already have (along with the 1" MML to hold the sticks in place) and 1.5" spacers (though spacers are hard on bearings and shafts, its worth it to keep the 33"s)

Vehicle Protection: Driving off-road poses unique risks to your Jeep. The incorporated two bump stops help to reduce the possibility of damage. These allow for more wheel motion while also protecting the wheel. Improved Handling: Shocks that are old and worn out are useless to you, your passengers, or your Jeep. Give your Jeep the handling and performance it needs to safely navigate challenges on and off the trail. When tackling ravines or rocky terrain, four inches of lift surely helps.
2) I've heard I need a steering stabilizer kit, SYE (no clue what it is). brake lines that are longer? But I've also heard that you don't need anything extra but the equipment given in the site. I'm not looking for extreme offroading, just some trails and gentle inclines with no rock climbing. However, I couldn't discover any definitive answers to queries that I believe should have clear solutions. 1) I need a 4 inch suspension raise, such as Skyjacker Part TJ401BPH - 4 Inch Sport Lift Kit with Hydro Shocks - Fits 1997 to 2002. 4 Wheel Parts for Jeep TJ Wrangler Is this all I require? 2) I've heard I need a steering stabilizer kit, SYE (no clue what it is). brake lines that are longer? But I've also heard that you don't need anything extra but the equipment given in the site.

I adore it! I have around 2k miles on the lift kit and it took me about two days as a first timer with adjustable control arms, primarily due to work getting in the way. It was relatively simple to install; all that was required was a steering stabilizer and a sye kit or transfer case drop kit. I chose a SYE because it is safer, particularly for lifting more than 4 inches. Everything is of high quality, and I had no problems installing it. The only drawback to this device is the tightness of the fast disconnects!!!! It takes a mallet and about 20 minutes to get the link pins back in, but it's been gorgeous both on and off the road. It really is one of the most comprehensive kits available, so there is no need to put it together. I enjoyed it and continue to do so.
