Default I want to lift my 01 cherokee 4x4 5spd and need help..

Hello every body, this is my first post here. I am working with a 2001 Jeep cherokee 4x4 5 spd 4.0L. She has stock wheels 15" and stock height and tires. I am looking to put 33" tires on stock wheels. I have seen jeeps before with stock wheels but 33"s .... I would like to know... what kind of lift should I buy? will i be able to fit 33" with a 3" lift or i would need a higher lift? ... also how much can i expect to pay for the lift (hardware)? and how much should i pay for labor charges (approx).

Expensive route: 4.5" lift, SYE, driveshaft, and some cutting if you want to run 33's. And i pretty sure you will need large spacers to run 33's on stock wheels.

Cheaper route: 3" lift, alot of cutting to run 33's.


Better off just buying cheap steel wheels that are the right size.

Just curious....
Why are you set on running 33's?
Why must they be on stock wheels?


I am setting up to run 32's on a 3" lift, with 15x8 +0 offset wheels and there will be some cutting.
