Skyjacker lift owners?
My current setup is Skyjacker 2" bb with 33's. Thinking of changing out the spacers for the 2.5 coils to gain a little height and improve the ride. Does anyones Skyjacker 2.5" lift measure more than 2.5"? I wonder if im better off going with a 3" lift but I am fine with my 33's for now. Thanks

I don't know if this helps but my 2.5" is really a 3.25". It is the 2.5" coils for an unlimited on a two door. The ride is great and if my tires would ever get here I'm going to put 35's on.

i have a 2 door x and had the 2"bb as well and upgraded
i asked my 4x4 shop for the 3
' springs and when it came it said 2.5-3.5 which means you get less lift on a 4dr. and more on a 2 dr.
i gotta tell you though when i was done installing the lift i saw such a huge difference in height i thought i would'nt be able to get it out of the garage. usually my cb antannae hits the garage door but now the jeep ant. hits the door, my only midtake was i forgor to measure b4 and after, and you will definitly b able to fit 35's no prob. i have 33's and they looked big with the BB, but now they look small and theres a lotta space in that wheel well.you'll be happy. but dont be surprised if you get red springs for the front and black for the back but not to worry they are just phasing out the red and going all black now. i have the red and black, but the ride is really good.

4wd.com is having a sale until the 27th so the Skyjacker 2.5" would be $283.00. I don't need to by shocks as Im already using the ones needed with my current lift. Im hoping to gain atleast .5" and would like 3/4" or even 1" but I do have a 4door with hardtop. We will see. Im still trying to decide if its worth it or if I should try another size lift or brand.
