Default 2001 Jeep cherokee 3in lift help

Hello Cherokee forum. I need some help starting a 3in lift build. I found a kit on roughcountry.com has everything I need except the adjustable track bar I think. I just need to know the backspacing and recommended tire size. And anything else that can help me out. I'm a noon at all this and my first build. And suggestions and tips are greatly appreciated.

Here's the lift u want to get http://www.roughcountry.com/jeep-suspension-lift-kit-670x.html

Are your stock springs good? No sag? That kit only has add a leaf, not a new leaf pack, if your leaves are sagging it won't give you the result youre looking for

There's a thread for lift questions. Build threads are dedicated to the build of your jeep. Unless you plan on recording your build here then it's fine.

Ok thano you. That looks like the way to go. Any suggestions on tired size and back spacing? And how is the installation?

As for that I can only comment on doing the front part as I have not lifted the rear of my jeep yet (waiting on parts) But doing the front springs is easy, provided you have access to a spring compressor, I rented one from auto zone to do mine

Besides a adjustable track bar is that all I will need to do the whole lift?
