    How much of a lift can I put on my 06 TJ without having to change out steering linkage, etc.

    Howell fuel injection, header, HEI distributor, TH350, NP208, SOA lift with YJ springs in the front & GW springs in the Rear. AMC20 with G2 1 piece chromos trussed, Dana 30 with G2 chromos and 760x ujoints and MM Stainless Hubs, Geared 4.56. Tom Woods shafts, Metal cloaks, Caged, 37" Toyo MTs.
    If I had to guess I would say about 4-6inch suspension lift with a 4 in drop pitman arm. If you go over 4 you will need to change your drive shafts, and should still change the rear drive shaft and install a SYE if you go 4in. It is better to ask what size tire you want to get under your jeep and then see how much lift and fender eraser you need to make em fit.
