Its stupid expensive to lift a Cherokee, should have bought a Wrangler for that if you want to lift it!! The older XJ's with the high pinion rear axles worked better for the lifting type!

Either way I wish you the best of luck with it. I knew a few friends with them, there durable! It looks sweet ass in the red with the charcoal wheels.

The reason I got it is so I have something to cart my newborn son in.....so I do not have to shove him in the back on the M3.....No plans on lifting as of yet....................yet

Hence the yet.. I had a friend that had a 3" suspension lift on his cherokee classic sport (2 door) it looked awesome.. Plus you can get Mickey Thompson wheels and 33" tires for like 1600 shipped mounted and balanced.. Awesome set up for the money! Best of luck brandon and how old is your son now?

This past weekend in the Blizzard..took the Jeep out for a little fun. This thing is the balls! I am so excited I do not have to drive the M around in this weather this year.

Jeep + foot of Snow = VGTs. I couldn't even get it stuck if I wanted to.

I said the same thing when I had my Wrangler...Back in 1994. (yeah, I'm old)

I went into 3 1/2 feet of snow and it was enough that the tires were too far off the ground to keep traction.

I had to dig the snow out from under it and in back of it to drive it out.

Worse thing, I was showing off to a girl on our first date. We never went out again.
