I just ordered a 4.5" RC lift and 31x10.5 tires for my 01 Cherokee. I am under the impression that I also need to get a SYE and a rear drive shaft as well as breaklines and an adjustable trackbar. I wasnt aware of all this when I got the lift so could you guys please let me know where the cheapest place is to get this stuff and anymore installation advice that the directions might not mention. Thanks!

Call the guys at RC and talk to them. Tell what year XJ and how much lift or do a search on here.There is alot of choices.

Im at work sorry,I have all JKS on mine.2'' lift no SYE just TC drop. Depends on what you do and if you get any vibes and how bad.

i have the 4.5 inch RC lift on my cherokee with no sye, no new brake lines and no adjustable track bar. if you go more than 4.5 inch you have to get an sye but you dont have to get it right now with the 4.5. As for brake lines i dont think you need them now eith. ive had my xj flexed out as far as she would go and didnt have much tension on my brake lines. with your track bar. i unbolted it and moved it down the bracket 3/4 of an inch and drilled another hole and mounted it. works great.

yea i heard from some people that you can just redrill you trackbar mounts but they said it is difficult to get it lined up properly. Did you find it relatively easy? I guess its one of those things that i will just have to wait and see how it goes. My concern is that this is my dd and I cant have downtime if i install the lift and then realize that i need to order an adjustable trackbar.

it was cake man. mine is my dd too. i live in denver and i just went to Lake McConaughy running 90 all the way there and all the way back with no problem. i can take my hands off the wheel for 10 seconds and she goes straight down the road. give it a shot
