Re: Best lift on YJ
 
I have the stock suspension on a '93 YJ and run the 30's without any
problems. It helps a little bit with the 4 banger in the dirt but I
don't do any truly aggressive riding in the dirt. Mostly banging around
on the desert trails and sand. I stayed with the 30's so I didn't
lose any power or turning clearance and for what I do they work just fine.

I did notice a little bit of power loss at altitude when I visited some
friends in Colorado. They were up around 7800 ft. Wonder why that is?
