lifting auto 4.0
i've been thinking about lifting my 92 4.0 HO but its automatic. i don't do hardcore trail driving. its my daily and i take it snowboarding and camping. but i still like for my jeep to like nice. i was thinking a 4 1/2 in lift but i'm not sure. the car has 241,xxx and still running strong. the car is still stock and haven't done anything to it. what is your guys opinion. do a lift or try to find a stick shift one. i just started college so i don't have a lot of $$$$

so i did go and look and was interested in their 4.5 in lift with the new rear leaf springs with the nitro 9000 shocks and performance steering stabilizer. but i am unsure of the control arm. what is better the adjustable C. arm or the C arm drop kit. or is both needed?
is there anything else i should be looking at replacing while redoing the suspension?

All of the above have good lift options... As far as it being an auto tranny.. it doesnt matter. Plenty of people wheel with autos, I do... Its just preferance... So do you're Jeep a favor... LIFT IT!!!

Exactly! Stick with the jeep and sell money pit Jetta lol (JK)... But seriously... Please lift the Jeep... It hurts me to know there is a stock cherokee with so much potential and no one wanting to give it a little love lol... good luck man
