Want to keep it simple for your first lift? Want to test the water without investing a bunch of time and money in parts and installation labor? If you are looking for a 31"~32" tall tire and need a lift to run with it, you can't beat the value of this 2-1/4" budget boost system. These poly spacers are made specifically to Kevin's specifications, use the highest quality polyurethane material and molding process available, and come with a *Lifetime Warranty* against cracking, splitting, chipping, discoloration...pretty much anything you can throw at them. Keeping the "BFYB" ratio in high gear, here is my "ultimate short-arm system", giving you the best Bang-For-Your-Buck possible, and the finest quality available ANYWHERE.
If your shocks are old, this is a perfect setup for you! I've packaged a set of my poly spacers with some excellent quality extended-length shocks, offering you my "ultimate short-arm system", and giving you the best Bang-For-Your-Buck possible. One nice thing about this lift is that you aren't wasting money on control arms that ride badly and/or are the same length as stock arms, and if you decided to graduate to the next level, these shocks can be sold later as "used" to someone coming up.

Note 1: You will not NEED to relocate the front axle toward the passenger side of the Jeep when only adding 2" of lift for any other reason than aesthetics. You can get by with the factory track bar for a while in most cases. However, if the bar is older and/or the bushings are worn, seriously consider our Track Bar Conversion, which is the most effective way of getting a strong connection between the axle and frame, lowering the propensity for Death Wobble (which can happen when you don't have a solid frame-to-axle mount and is not a lot of fun). Note 2: This would be used in place of the Track Bar Conversion. The TBC is only about $30 more net (after you send your bracket back), it has bushings that last longer, are easier to replace, and won't bind up during flex due to the Double-Shear mount that we manufacture here in-house. Note 3: Adding Adjustable Control Arms to 2" of lift is not necessary, but I added it as an option because some people would prefer to not spend money on replacing the bushings in their factory lower control arms when they want to move up to 3.5" or 4.5" later and would like the control arms now. Note 4: Rear ZJ spring post-extensions are basically cheap insurance against losing a rear spring. They are included in the package above, but are available separately as well. They eliminate the propensity of your rear coil to jump off it's upper perch during articulation and/or sudden spring unloading. I recommended them for budget boosts of 1.25" and greater, and I STRONGLY recommended them for budget boosts greater than 1.50". When you're mounting your budget boost you'll understand why...there isn't much of the spring retaining post left sticking out after you put that spacer in between the body and the spring!! These pieces slip over your factory spring post, extending it lower so that the top of the spring doesn't come off of the locating post. They can be installed with silicone, RTV gasket material, drilled and screwed into position, or tack welded into position if you prefer. All you're doing is overcoming gravity...there are no other forces on them. All they do is guide the spring into it's factory seat.
