What is the biggest suspension lift kit I can get for my 1982 CJ5, and what other size lift kits are there?
-Thanks |

If you're looking for an off-the-shelf lift kit (e.g. Skyjacker, Superlift, Rancho, Rough Country, Tuff Country, etc.), the biggest they make for your rig is a 4" lift. However, you can certainly have someone make you custom springs to just about any height.
I hope you don't plan on wheeling it with anything more than a 4" overall lift though... it'll be WAYYYY too top heavy.
