    I've got a 2012 DCSB and want to get a 1.5-2" lift.

    I will be having this work done by one of the local shops, I've personally lifted several XJ's over the years but will be paying for this project as I have limited free time.

    Would prefer to get a complete kit vs various parts here and there as a "package".

    My endless reading here on TW has led me to two options:

    1.) Full OME kit with rear spring packs for +/- $1100 and $500 for labor + alignment

    2.) 5100's all around with the front set at 1.75" - I have the 4 leaf rear TSB springs now and not sure what if anything would be needed here.

    It's my daily driver and see's moderate trails every so often, but not a dedicated trail rig. Just want a little more clearance for the 265's I've got now.

    Will be looking at a topper at some point in the future if that affects anything.

    Suggestions?

    Im looking at 5100s all around set to 0 with OME 881 coils and a 3 AAL in the back, which will give about 2-2.5" lift

    Keep in mind that 5100s should only be adjusted for height if you're sticking with your stock coils/springs

    I like the 5100 kit, its a quality lift for the price.

    Of course there's much better out there but suspension lifts can get real costly real fast. Alot of people don't seem to like the stiffness of the 5100s though

    Im in the same boat as you, i want about 2" up front and run a campershell occasionally. FWIW, I am going with a full OME kit. Trying to decide on the 884s or 885s but I am leaning towards the 884s as I dont want to much lift.
