I am new to this forum and this is my first cherokee. Anyways i have a 4.5 suspension lift and am looking for a body lift to add just a few more inches and give it a taller look, any sugestions on where to look or a certain brand to buy.

 

The cherokees are unibody (body and frame one piece). There is not a body lift for them....

 

x2

 

XJs are unibody,means no frame,so no you can't do a body lift.

 

best thing we could suggest is coil spacers and shackles for an inch or two

 

Guys first post, newbie question, replies handled with class, this is why I love this forum, you guys rock!

 

don't feel ill minded though.... alot of people mistake the jeep XJ for being a frame style vehicle.... its one of the things that separates us from those Chevy/Ford guys.... we can't lift out rigs a mile high with huge blocks

 

Never heard of a plasma cutter? haha, just joking, what everybody said in this thread

 

Thanks for all the infomation, im sure i will have plenty of more questions in the future

 

XJ body lifts are awesome lol

here are 2 of my favorites:

and who said cherokees couldn't be lifted big. buddy of mine with 2.5 ton rockwells with a big block and 49in iroks




and yeah no go on body lifts

 

ROFL!!! for ****'s sake!! lol, i can't stop laughing at this!

 

I never understood a body lift.It gives you absoluteley no more clearence, flex or travel and therefore they are strictley for posers.

 

Clearance for bigger tires? It also results in a slightly lower COG than a suspension lift of the same height, but the difference is marginal.

 

The reason for a suspension lift is to clear bigger tires for more ground clearance, a body lift does the exact same thing.
