Default lift question

So my friend has this 95 cherokee with 4 1/2 inch rough country lift on it with 33 inch mickey t baja claws... and they rub a little but since its a uni body you cant get a body lift.. so i was wondering whats the best way to lift the front just like an 1 to an 1 1/2.... so it will stop rubbing.. any suggestions?

either coil spring spacers or get wheel spacers to move them out from the huib a little, coil spacers would be the better way to go if you plan on doing any real offroading, the wheel spacers might put too much stress on the hubs and axle

if ya ain't running coil spacers already that's about the only way . . . if you space out the wheel then they will rub on the fenders even worse . . . you should know that zach . . . lol

it rubs when he turns sharp..... what coil spacers would be best.... the little rubber things or the metal ones that you can expand.

well i would just trim the fenders a little, theres no point on lifting the front any higher, 4.5 is plenty for 33s. I say this because every little bit you lift the front makes steering angles go beserk, and then shock travel, i mean just trim! haha
