33x10.5 make big difference on mpg then 33x12.5?

Just bought a 01 Cherokee sport a few weeks ago. Looking into a lift and bigger tires. I want to go about 3 inches or so and run maybe 31 or 32 inch tires. What is the biggest lift and tires I can get away with without having to modify anything else to compensate for the new lift and tires. Some people say I need to re-gear it and my drive shaft will have issues and that I may need a slip yoke eliminator. No too sure what all needs to be done when lifting it. So I figured I would ask before I jump into something that ends up costing me more money than I can spend right now. Thanks guys!

Buy a complete kit. A 3" should include:

leaf springs & hardware
Shocks (all four)
LCA (lower control arms)
Coil springs

as far as the drive line, if your XJ is 97+ the drive line its more sensitive to lift. Recommend a tcase drop or SYE.

If its pre 97, you could be fine, but id recommend buying the tcase drop just to safe

a note: for the leaf springs, full packs are easier to install and last a little longer. Even though they cost more, its worth the money.

To run 31x10.50x15 you need to get rims with about a 3.5" backspacing, or HUBCENTRIC 1.5" wheel spacers

Idk what it takes to run 32's, haven't gotten that far yet haha, good luck dude!

4" and trimming for my 99 with a t case drop.

I totally disagree about the backspacing. You need to stick with the stock wheel backspacing. You might need to adjust the steering stops alittle bit but thats it. Anything less than stock backspacing is gonna rub your flares and knock them off. If you don't want to trim your fenders then stick with stock backspacing.

Actually that's wrong. The lift raises the flair above the tire

X2 my buddy runs a 3" RC series II with 31's on soft 8's with a 4" bs and there is zero rubbing except on the end caps for the front bumper. And that's very minimal

ok so i bought the 3" RC lift to put 31's on it do i have to do anything or should it be fine and if so what do i need to do and how much will it cost?

BNJeepsta

Are you on stock rims? And you should straighten out the front brake lines and get a TJ rear line. Works perfect and super cheap

Is it bad to use the stock rims? but as of right now i just have the lift and was thinkin of getting the 31x10.5 wrangler duratracs.....

01GreenMachine

and how much would you guess it to be to do the break line stuff?

BNJeepsta

31's on stock rims will rub the lower control arms at full lock but its tolerable. I did it with no lift for a long time. And the TJ rear line is like $17 at autozone and the front line mod is free. Duratracs are amazing! I run them and love them

Im on stock rims too. Tucks real nice w/ 31x 10.50's.
