Details? You have a 95 cherokee with????


When you lifted did you do a TC drop or SYE kit?

Did you check the u-joints? Mine clunks in the rear bc my shackle bushings are shot.

u joints r those the shackles? I checked them when I did the lift they didn't look bad the angle changed and they barley went on but RC sells shackles but they say I would get 2" out of them witch means the jeep wouldn't be level if I do use them sobwhat kind of shackles should I use if this would be the problem

U-joints are on the driveshaft, If they are bad they could cause a clunking noise. So far as the shackles go I was just stating why mine clunks. If the bushings look cracked and dry rotted they might need to be replaced.
