Stock grand Cherokee set up on a cherokee?
I was thinking to put a Grand cherokee leaf and spring set up on my Cherokee spot. I wanted to put 1.5in shackles on it. Over all im looking for a 3in lift. Im going cheap but have the tools and time required. Anyone ever done this in the past??

Grand cherokees are coil sprung in all 4 corners. The only thing that you can use from the grand cherokee is the front coils. if they are the V8 grand cherokee coils expect to see about 1"-2" of lift. That is about it tho

you can make a bastard pack out of s-10 leafs or really any leaf that is 2.5" wide. if you search on here plenty of people have done them! they are cheap to get leafs at a junk yard too!
