I got a set of hydraulic lifters with the RV cam from HESCO.  I have'nt put it in yet, but the hydro lifters are supposed to adjust to wear on the pushrod and eliminate the lifter rattle.  Seems like every jeep has some lifter noise.

The stock lifters are also hydraulic.  I don't think anyone's used solid lifters in a while.  At least not on something other then a race engine.
