Default New cherokee are these original?
I just bought an 89 Cherokee pioneer 4.0 4x4 and I have never lifted anything or had a jeep so please help me out, I'm not sure if the previous owner put coil spacers and different shackles or not. its sitting on 31x10.5x15 right now and it has decent clearance so can you tell me if this is lifted.

Local auto parts store shackles and looks like 3 inch coil spacer.
