If your trying to homebrew one than, yes you would have to change your shocks. Give Motion Offroad a call. They can set you up with what you need.

If looking to purchase a new one, usually manufactures have a shock listed for the kit.

ok I know that i can lift my 93 XJ 3in in front and 2 1/2in in rear without changing anything. What I dont know is will I need to change my shocks?

When you say "without changing anything" what do you mean? There are several things that should be addressed at this height if you want to lift your XJ correctly.

And yes, at 3" of lift you need to address your shocks.

Let us know if we can be of any further help!

 

Not sure where your getting your info, but I'd be hesitant to trust your source.

3" is a rather large coil spacer. It's so large infact that you'll not have much safe room for your coil and will most likely drop your coil (it will fall out) with just a little bit of flex. We don't recommend running anything more than 2" of spacer on the front of the XJ/MJ. A coil spacer is not the correct solution to achieve 3" of lift in the front.

You should also really consider using an adjustable trackbar with 3" of lift as well.

Here is a cheap 3" lift that uses coils and an AAL. http://motionoffroad.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=481
