2 or 3 inch lift with 33's
 
Looking for some advice. I am trying to decide between a 2 or 3 inch lift. I am putting 33's on stock 17's. I use the jeep mainly for a daily driver. I still need to fit it in the garage, right now I have 8.5 inches before its to tall. I also need to find a good shop in kansas to have it done. Any suggestions???

your 2" looks like you got more lift than the 2.5" spacers? Are you guys installing your own lifts or is there a good shop to have this done???

easy to do yourself.
 
These basic lifts are so easy to do yourself. plus u will learn about and appreciate what goes on under the jeep if you do it yourself. I know absolutly nothing about a 4x4 when i put my lift on and it went on easy.

BTW his 2" lift is bigger than most 2.5 BB lifts. I had a 2.5 TF BB and his was a lot bigger than mine when we went wheelin together.

One more thing. I still need to fit this in my garage. Does anyone have measurements on there height after the lift and 33's? I really appreciate the help. They all look great.

Mine fits in the garage with 35's and my lift with about 4" to spare. I have a standard garage door.
