Please- help locating body mounts
I want to put a 3" body lift on my 1990 Cherokee, but i can't seem to find were the body mounts were to even start. If someone could help me it would be great.

Sorry Dude. All XJs have what is called a Unibody frame. The frame and body are one. No body lift option with this rig. You'll have to do a suspension lift.

No worrys, Bro. I'm glad you asked before you bought a body lift that you couldn't use. The only dumb question is the one that isn't asked.

MdgtRac, I have a set of 4 inch lift coils that my son bought and never used taking up room in my garage. I also have a set of 4.5 inch lift Rusty's lower control arms. I bet among all the guys in the forum, if asked, we could put you together a full lift kit on the cheap from spare parts guys have just laying around.

I thought the same thing when I bought my first XJ, I looked all over for the mounts. But as much as these things flex there is no way I would put a bodylift on if it were possible.

That's why I don't have electric windows in my XJ. If I need some fresh air I just flex it out real good....air starts coming in from everywhere...LOL.

Nah, sorry Six-Pack. They aren't the adjustable ones. They are the fixed LCA that come with the Rusty's 4.5 inch lift....but, if you want them, they are yours.

I can see how this is deserving of a nomination but, I think he learned something, too.....so, win win.
