I have a 90 jimmy and was planning on putting an aal up front and 2 inch block in the back. Would i need to get new shocks? Also can you use a zero rate with a aal?

Thanks
 
Oh, No you will not need new shocks. They would help but it doesn't sound like you are trying to build a suspension for off roading. If you want to get some lift for cheap just buy a body lift ;)
 
Dont want a body lift cause eventually im gonna get all spring 6 inch and hont want to have to take it out. Just trying to make some more room for 33s for now till i get a job haha
 
If you don't mind trimming the body, you could just borrow a sawsall if you don't have one and trim the fenders up a bit. This should fix any problems you have. I am running 35's with a 2" leaf lift and trimmed justy a little bit at first and had no rubbing issues.

Normally you will only have to trim the front. This can be done with little noticeability to the untrained eye ;)
 
I wouldnt mind bringin out the sawzall but i got a truck way nicer than what i wanted lol

Hey nice truck, looks just like mine did when I got it. I tried keeping mine in good shape, just because it was a decent truck.
