There are two basic types of lifts—suspension and body lifts. Both are designed to increase the distance between the ground and the rolling chassis, which gives TJ owners the option of putting in bigger, taller tires. But where one is more for cosmetics, the other greatly improves both performance as well as appearance. Because they are much cheaper and do not change the angle of the suspension, body lifts are popular with drivers who engage in less aggressive off-roading activities. Yes, they can put in larger tires, but because the suspension is not raised, ground clearance does not increase. A suspension lift kit, on the other hand, improves ground clearance. This makes it easier to avoid natural obstacles on unpaved terrain. A more in-depth explanation on Jeep Wrangler Lift Kits can be found here. ExtremeTerrain offers an impressive selection of lift kits and complementary Jeep Wrangler suspension parts that were designed to better perform during all kinds of off-roading.
Effects of a 1998 Jeep Wrangler Lift Kit
The primary function of any lift kit is to lift the vehicle body from the ground. This increases the gap between the tires and fenders, allowing for bigger wheels and tires to be fitted without any additional modifications. With better wheels and tires, and more importantly, with increased ground clearance, your Wrangler’s off-road capabilities will be much better compared to a stock setup. With a Jeep TJ lift kit installed, you’ll also improve your Wrangler’s exterior looks. Even a small lift will make your Wrangler stand out from the crowd and show its dominance on the road. It also allows for other upgrades and modifications to be made such as aftermarket bumpers, winches, light bars, rock sliders, larger wheels, tires, and much more. All these upgrades play a big role in how your vehicle looks. For longer off-road adventures and overlanding, a lift kit will help increase stability and handling under heavier loads. These types of off-road activities require drivers to pack a lot of cargo and different recovery equipment which can add a significant amount of weight to the vehicle. Because the weight is mostly located in the rear part of the vehicle, the front tires will have less traction and handling will take a huge hit. With a 1998 Jeep Wrangler lift kit, the vehicle’s stance remains level, keeping traction at the highest level in any driving condition.
