The RC lift I'm installing says 3" front 2" lift rear. I bought a 3" lift thinking it would be evenly lifted 3". Does this lift level out to 3 inches in the back or will it be lower by an inch in the back? I want to know so I can buy 1" shackles if I need them.

Man..
If you can id just pickup some 3" leaf packs...those aal's wont hold up for long. The shackle will just make them die faster.

If it says 3" front 2" rear.. then it probably gives 3" front and 2" rear.

x2. looking forward to seeing the finnish product.

As far as sway bars go, i was gonna take it off but decided to keep it and i got a set of jks qkr discos when i bouth my c/a's, rims and tires. and now she handles better than stock. For a lifted truck she stays pretty flat in the corners. body roll is barley noticable.

haha..listen to me... a cherokee handling praise...lol.

The lift is 3inches front and back. The instructions that come with it are stupid. They are generic instructions for numerous kits they sell. If you bought the 3inch series 2 w/ the aal it's 3 in the front and 3 in the back. I have the aal and the rear still sits higher than the front and mine has been on for a couple months now and I've taken it out in the pines a couple times. You'll be fine.

I'm looking for full packs to get rid of my aals. But for how much everyone says they suck SO FAR they haven't been bad. But I would be a happy camper if I could find some 3.5 full packs...

That's because NJ doesn't seem to want to let patrons think for themselves.

I have their 3" lift with full leaf springs. The instructions for those also said 3" front and 2" rear. I wouldn't worry about
