Me and a couple friends have stock xjs, all of them are 2000 except for one that has a 2001 all are 4wd. All of them are higher than mine, the wheels are farther from the fender and you can easily see they are higher than mine, any causes for this?

 

Maybe you are only one that got a stock xj.

Maybe your suspension components are so worn out, and the springs are sagging.

 

Tire size can make a difference in height and width. Also the tires of the same size can appear bigger than others. I have two set of tires of the exact same size and one set looks bigger on my jeep than the other set. Also, your suspension may be worn out and sagging a bit more as well. I notice that on my stock XJ, it seems to have less space in the wheel wells than some others I see, I know the rear leafs are pretty worn.

 

Time to grab a measuring tape and do some noggin pokin.

I'm sure you have a measuring tape. Here's the definition of noggin pokin:

The only way you're gonna find what you're looking for is to GO LOOK!

Around the Jeep that is. In these parts, we call it "noggin pokin".

That's where you use your God given senses to inspect YOUR Jeep for problems. We can only provide you with guidance as to where to poke your noggin.

There's no Silver Bullet cure you're gonna find from a keyboard, mouse and monitor.

 

One of my friends had a budget lift and didn't even know it -.-

 

They probably got more stuff they don't know about.
