Do you plan to wheel it pretty hard?

If you dont wanna loose clearance with dropping the Tcase skid plate you could go the route I went with my old TJ

I had 4" suspension (3" in ur case) 2" BB, 1" body. I put in a SYE and M.O.R.E. 1" engine mounts.

Not to beat the dead horse.. But if your going to DD it and highway it more often than not WITH the 3in coil lift, your definitely going to want to do something with the pinion angles. In my opinion, (very punny) it's a must, at least the Xfer case drop kit I got for you. The rear drive shaft is so freakin' short your going to burn through U-Joints like it's going out of style and your going to get nasty vibrations going up and down the road every thousand miles if not. ASK me how I know!

Also, if you do decide to go bigger than the 3in coils, your probably going to need some adjustable lower arms / trac bars (or whatever you prefer to call them) to get a good clean alignment.. Some people may recall I struggled with mine but gave in and put some longer adjustable arms on it a few weeks ago. Now it's easy as crap to get it aligned.
