So I don't know much about lifts and what not, but I do want a small body lift maybe 2-3 inches. Something cheap to just raise my jeep with out having to replace parts. What would you recommend? Hopefully a lift that's inexpensive! Thanks!

No such thing for an XJ Cherokee. It didn't have a frame.

If your have the older, full-size Cherokee, it's a different story.

Just recieved my Zone 3'' kit with full leaf packs! Also Picked up a set of 5 Grand cherokee Stock gold Y split rims with well worn 31'' ironman A/Ts from craigslist. Stoked to be putting all this on ASAP! Can anyone lead me in the right direction to a install write up, I know they are out there but I am having trouble finding them. Maybe because I'm using the app on my phone, not good at navigating this think. Thanks for the help, Y'all are awesome!

so i will be recieving my 3" zone lift with full leafs on thursday, picked up some jks disco's for pretty cheap, my question( may be dumb) ... even though i have the upgraded up country suspension, will i still need an adjustable track bar?

Upcountry came with stock trackbar I'm 99% sure. You shouldve gotten the JKS one while you were on a roll getting the sway bar discos cheap. Either way, some guys run the stock one on 3".. Ive got a buddy on 3.5" with the stock one, and the axle is pretty noticeably off. It would bother me a lot, but he's alright with it.

Just because Cheap and Jeep rhyme, it doesn't mean that they go together! Albeit, there are some inexpensive options to lift your Jeep. A little research on this topic will go a long way. Cheapest way to lift the front is coil spacers, cheap ways to lift the rear are new longer shackles (my recommendation), add-a-leafs, and (dare I say it), blocks.

You did good getting full leafs. Thumbsup. It be cool if you went full coils too. Best way to lift. Alsoquick discos are key. As for trac bar.

Spend the money and get a IRO adjustable trac bar. Don't chances it. Don't redrill a hole. Get it.and save for a SYE for when you gonna lift taller like working on a house, also plan for future upgrades. Plan smart and don't do it twice

You will still need one. As sycoglitch said, I recommend an Iron Rock Offroad double shear trackbar.

You need an aftermarket trackbar at 3" or more. Your suspension isn't geometrically correct without one.

Extended shackles on stock leaf springs will cause them to prematurely wrap and break. Full leaf packs are the proper way to lift the rear, as AALs won't fix the worn out factory leafs.

I'm on the same page with the 3" lift and needing the extended trac bar. With budget in mind would the relocation bracket suffice for at least a temporary solution until I can pull together the funds for a double sheer adj. one? Maybe another few months? Mostly on road DD might take it into a little mud before I make the upgrade.

NewKindOfClown

Do you have a link to the relocation bracket? I'm not familiar with any for a stock tb.

sycoglitch

I believe they mAke for rear JKs. Not sure about xjs though

Slim357

D521XJ

if i went full coils?

sycoglitch

Coil springs in the front. Yea you did full leaf springs.wanna mare sure you got a new full length 3" lift coil springs and not just a spacer

D521XJ
