hey all, im wanting to lift my jeep a coupla inches to get some bigger tyres and a bit more clearance...i saw these kits on fleabay
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Jeep-Grand-Cherokee-ZJ-2-LIFT-KIT-with-Pro-Comp-Shocks_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem1e4ec79dc2QQitemZ130170723778QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories

so wondering if there are any issues with gettin stuff from the us? i know llama does a 1.5 inch kit for similar money

but then i found these for half the money

so not sure what to go for..i realise the difference in terms of kit but not sure what actual difference would it make....oh by the way mines a 4.0 laredo zj

It will be pucks and shocks

as said Rough Country via Llama also 4wd's own and Rustys

Too busy  eating a scotch egg at lunchtime to fully respond...sorry..

The first one uses Procomp shocks which don't have the bestest reputation

The second doesn't have shocks in itgo figure when you work out the age/mileage of yourZG...

I started this route a few years ago. Just using the 2" spacers will limit travel on your suspension which would only be an issue if you want to go off-road. If it is just to improve stance on road with some usage on rough tracks etc then probably not worth paying for shocks.

With 2" lift you can fit 31" tyres but you will also have to adjust steering stops to prevent rubbing on the control arms. I only ever fouled on the front wing when on full lock with the ARB dislocated.
