lmao ive been following this thread because I just grabbed a Cherokee 1998 with only 32000 miles on it and want to do exactly what you did. Mine is the very same color and everything but your type of roof rack lol. I thought it was mine at first. Now I can see EXACTLY what it will look like. Looks killer if you ask me, cant wait. WHat lift is it bud?

Thanks. The lift is a Rancho 2.5" with new coils, lower control arms, rear add-a-leaf and the Rancho 5000 shocks. The tires are 30x9.50 and the wheels are Cragar 15"s. I just picked it up yesterday and only have maybe 25 local street miles on it, but the ride improvement is significant. Good luck with yours.

Try this for a start http://www.gorancho.com/suspension.p...erokee_xj#lift
This is the kit. All components were included in a kit except the shocks, which were separate. I got mine and had it installed locally.

This is a 96 sport about 1.5" of lift with 30x9.5r15 tires. No back spacing required. No Rubbing.
I even test fit some 31" tires, and they worked. But I didn't want to add an extra inch of width to each tire (thinner is better for the deep snow and ice we deal with). I think the 96 sport model is a little more forgiving with tire size due to the room available and clearance in the front fenders. I think the 97+ XJs and those with the classic style fenders may be a little less forgiving.
