to lift your jeep 4" you are looking at $1000 for a decent lift. Sorry to say it only starts with the lift. You will also need the following:

Slip Yoke Eliminator Kit for transfer case $350
CV Drive Shaft for the rear $300
Drive Shaft work on the Front $100
If running wider than 10.5" tires New Wheel (Approximately 3.5" backspacing) $130(cheapest)
Extended Shocks should be in lift kit
Extended brake lines $100(stainless steel)

With 33s on a 4 cylinder you will most likely have to do some gear changing in the axles to maintain highway performance.

All of these things are just the purchase cost, unless you are doing the work yourself you will have to add in the labor(approx $700) for everthing excluding gears and lockers.

You can do without the sye and cv shaft if you only do a 2" spacer lift. It's alot cheaper, but you probably won't be able to run 33's. You will definately have to change ring and pinion gears. I have the 2" spacer and am running 30x12.50's, I don't use fifth gear very often, especially with the a/c running. You will need gears just to run 31's.

If your kidneys don't hurt, it's not a real Jeep!
