What did you do to your Cherokee today?
#7231
I did the 3" RC AAL and dont think I got a full 3". Didn't take a measurement before and after but I was not happy with it. The lift works fine and seems well built for a cheap lift. Ill be adding a 2" BB with adjustable track bars, transfer case drop and quick discos in the near future. PS any rub on the 31's with stock back spacing? mine rubs hard over with 265/70's a tiny bit smaller than your 31's.

My XJ is just that tough!!!
No... honestly I am not sure really. I just know he couldn't tow it from the front or the back. It kept locking up once he had it raised but rolled fine flat on the ground.
They are suppose to be getting over there to put it on tow dollys instead.

The reason you didn't get a full 3" in the back is the AAL. You probably had sagging stock springs to begin with so they're pretty much trash even with the AAL. In the front you definitely got the full 3"
you shoulda put the T-case in Neutral along with the transmission. It'd allow everything to spin freely.
