Questions & Answers (17)

5 Top Rated Questions

on the rough country 4' suspension lift for 89 wrangler do you have to buy longer brake lines ?

This kit includes brake line relocation brackets, so purchasing new brake lines is not required. If you intend to do major crawling at full articulation, upgrading to longer lines would be a worth while investment.
No it comes with extensions for the brake lines.

How does it handle on the road is same as stock

This will handle on road fine but will be a much rougher ride than factory.

I have an 89 YJ. I am looking to replace the existing shocks and leaf springs. The shackles that are currently on the jeep are 9 and 3/4 long. The seem to be so long that they have assisted in flattening the leaf springs over time. What shackles would you recommend with this kit?

Stock length shackles would be used with this kit, unless additional lift is required.

Helpful (0)

Will the shocks in this kit support an additional 1 inch Shackle lift?

We do not suggest altering any kits without contacting the manufacturer.

Helpful (0)

Have your 4 inch lift in and have done steering wonder, looks like my pinion angle is to hi on my front axel. Do you need shims like the rear axel to fix this problem?

After installation it is highly recommended to have the wrangler aligned to correct any caster and camber issues that may arise.

If you get brake line extensions, do you need them in the front and back or just one 1 answer

If you purchase the brake line extensions instead of using the brackets included in the kit, you will need both front and rear extensions.

Some of the answers to other questions say a SYE is necessary, but the description says Tubular Transfer Case Drop Maintains Correct Driveshaft for a Steady Ride. So what is correct? Also another answer to a question says spring eye bolts are recommended, why? 1 answer

The Rough Country 4 in. Suspension Lift Kit does not require a SYE kit for street use, though if you plan on going off road, especially over obstacles where you articulate the suspension pretty far, it will definitely be needed. For Street use, a transfer case drop will be more than adequate. It is recommended to replace the bolts for the springs, as oftentimes these are severely corroded, and not able to be reused.

Will 33” on 17” rims work with lift? If so what specs on 17” rims do I need? 1 answer

Yes this lift kit is designed to clear up to a 33 inch tire. Ideal wheel specs can vary depending on the build, though a 4.5 inch backspacing is a common size that will work perfect with this lift.

i have a 1995 wrangler yj and was wondering if this lift kit has everything necessary for lifting it or do i need to buy something to lift/lower the transmission too. 1 answer

Yes, with the Rough Country 4 in. Suspension Lift Kit you will need to purchase a slip yoke eliminator and aftermarket rear driveshaft. Also pending the size tire you add, we would suggest upgrading your steering stabilizer as well.

Great kit!

Everything went in as described. The only thing I had to do that wasn't mentioned was cut away some material on my shifter seal, under the shifter boot. It didn't want to shift into 2nd, 4th, or reverse until I did this. Also highly recommend getting new spring bolts for the front and rear, and some shock boots.

Fun to install

I couldn't have done it by myself, but my son and I enjoyed this two day project with a couple jack stands and decent set of wrenches. Good instructions included and plan on 12 hours if you take a lot of breaks like me and have only done this once before on an international scout. Be prepared for a few rusty bolts on a 30 year old Jeep YJ. The final product looks great and actually gave me 5 inches of life because the stock springs were sagging. Jeep fits 33's now just fine. Be sure to order the part that calibrates the speedo if you go with larger tires. 1989 Jeep YJ, 2.5 motor, 5 speed trans.

Great upgrade

My 94 yj was in desperate need of a new look. In the process of installing. So far so good. All the parts are there and fast shipping. Working on an old New England Jeep is a pain. Had to order new main eye leaf spring bolts and new sway bar bolts. I am having to drill out the original sway bar bolts. If your Jeep is your only ride then consider having a pro install it.

Rough country suspension

It was my first time doing a suspension lif and I consider myself a utube mechanic. The instructions were clear and I was successful in the instalation. My challenge was I underestimated removal of old suspension. Had to resort to cutting shackle bolts

Great Lift

I got a 4” Rough Country Lift for my YJ and it’s been a great lift so far, improved the ride incredibly and looks nice too. I do have a small vibration now due to the driveshaft angle but nothing extreme, might be worth it to get a SYE.

I so far love the lift kit, I would just say follow the instructions and you will have to drop the transfer case and change the break lines so dont think you will get out of doing that. I would recomend it.

Excellent lift for the money.

I installed this lift in my driveway. For the most part everything went as the instructions said. There were some small issues that I ran into but overall it was easy and efficient. You will probably need to buy a new set of bushings for your frame and I had to use the original U bolts on the front because the ones that came with the kit didn't fit on my 94 YJ. Everything else was great. I also took extreme terrain's recommendations and did the SYE and CV drive shaft. So far so good.
