Default lift=level?

i just recently bout a 96 Cherokee and the front is sagging two inches and i was wanting to lift it maybe two inches i was wondering if i buy a all out lift kit and add it will the front still be lower? or do the kits come with leveling already?


or will i have to get something to add another 2 to the front to make it level?

any feedback would be greatly appreciated

your front springs are weak thats why its sagging.
if you get a kit it should be level

The new lift should come with new front coils that will replace the sagging ones.

just make sure you get a lift with new front coils. A budget boost with spacers wont work. It will just lift the sagging springs, and the front will still be lower
