XJ Lift Kit?

Hi all,

I am looking for a "small" lift on my 99 XJ. I added aftermarket wheels with larger tires. I have no clearance problems unless I get some weight in the rear of the Jeep - 250lbs or so. Then I get some rubbing on the rear fender wells. So I am looking a different options. I don't want to go any higher than is necessary.

The Jeep is rarely used off road, although it occasionally gets a bit muddy :) I was thinking about a .75 coil spacer on the front and 1.5 blocks on the rear. What do you think? Also, what would be the best overall shocks for this type of setup - decent ride on paved road and acceptable off road performance?

Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks.

How soon are you wanting to do this??? I have a kit I will be putting on my jeep soon and will be taking my budget boost off that was only one for about 6 months. This consists of a 1.5 inch spacer in the front and a add a leaf in the rear. If you can wait a while (month or so) I will sell the pucks and add a leafs for $100 + shipping

I went with the Tomken 2" spacer lift kit ($150), and it worked out great. I run 31's with no rubbing.
