    the bright side is, you got much more lift and can run more tire!

    Sadly, I already bought 30x9.5 Falken ATs for it, probably could have went with 31's, abet with rubbing on turns. Oh well. Are there any other modifications I need to do at a ~3" lift that I ignored since I thought I only had 2"? I did get longer (and I think long enough shocks).

    Do I have to mess with axle shims too, or can I just do the Iron Rock hack and tap, throw in a front shaft and be good?

    On another note, the local junkyard things they have a front drive shaft, but its already pulled, and just labeled "jeep". Does anyone know the collapsed/extended lengths on a XJ, Automatic, 89-01 front shaft? I can measure mine, but its at home and the Junkyard would be easy to stop by on my way home tonight.

    Also, as another thought, 30" tires might not be too bad if the springs sag back down to the advertised ~2" over time.
