Re: 2" Lift ?'s
I can't say if you will have any rubbing problems in your rear, but the
Jeep certainly won't. As for your front, well, take it easy if your
rubbing gets excessive. Regardless, your Jeep will be fine with the
stops let out bit.

Re: 2" Lift ?'s
Don't go adjusting things until you try it first.
I have seen a bunch including both of my Jeeps that only rub in one
direction, so only one steering stop adjustment is needed.

Re: 2" Lift ?'s
I have seen this mentioned several times as I decided on what to do to
replace worn springs on my CJ.
Maybe I'm being dense, but what does lifting the body have to do with
alignment? Why does it have to be re-aligned just because of the
lift?
Although the center of gravity might be raised some, and certainly
will be in my case when compared with the old collapsed springs -- the
exact same weight is being supported at the exact same places on the
frame.
And in this case the person was talking about only a minor lift -- 2".
The kit instructions for the one I am now doing make no mention of
this.
Just trying to understand what I may be missing .....
