those are 215/60R15's. that's with the drop up front, w/o the drop in the back. to drop the rear, we used 2.5" lift blocks (MJ's are SUA from factory so lift blocks actually lower).

the picture isn't great...it doesn't show how low the truck actually is.


I would put a 1.5" shackle on the xj in the back, then SUA the axle and set up custom sway bar.

Yea not what i was expecting, i thought it would look lower, but if it was cleaned up and body work was done it could look pretty good



if you put SUA leafs on an XJ that would give you close to 3" drop right?

yup, work in progress. I didn't say it was nice...just that it's lowered.

rides OK.

it is a rust free truck though, so good start.

Not lowered, but a fine example of just how ncie a street cherokee can be. They made over 2,000,000 of these trucks, they can't all be lifted offroadsters. People's tastes are just too diverse. that is what makes it interesting to be a human being and all isn't it? The ability to do something different?
