Can I get some feed back on the Rocky Road Outfitters Budget 3" lift kits for the 94 Cherokee. Spacers in front, shackles and mini blocks for rear. It may already be on this forum, but I don't understand some of the abbreviations. Thanks again..

Don't know about the 3" BB from Rocky Road but, I bought the Daystar BB from them. 1 3/4" front spacer and 1" lift rear shackle. This leveled my somewhat uneven XJ out at 6" front and rear. They had awesome cutomer service and shipping was better than other places I've dealt with. I'd say they are a good place to do business with. The Daystar BB has been on my XJ for 2 years now and has lived through everything I've thrown at it.

I just installed the Rocky Road 2" budget lift on my 96 Cherokee Classic last week. 2" spacer in the front with the shackles and 1/2" spacer in the rear. Install was pretty straight forward on the rear. If your bolts come out easy then it won't take long if they are rusted then it's a different story. The front wasn't to bad but I had to undo more than their instructions said to.
I still need to install the bar pin eliminators, extends the shock about 1.5", but so far have not had an issue with the travel being limited by the shock length. It drives good and the ride characteristics (comfort) are the same as stock. I did add a thicker sway bar in the front. I got it from the junk yard, it was from a 91 limited, 2mm thicker than the stock one. It does keep the vehicle flat even with the extra height. I'd recommend finding the larger sway bar if the car is a daily driver.
