I bought a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland last week. It was stock. Now I have a 4" RC lift on it with the 2.2 shocks, 31.5" mud claws, and some 16" Dick Cepek DC2s on it. So here are the before and after pics. Tell me what you think 
Oh yeah, it has the V8 and tow package...

It's time to start working on my crawler again! The plan is to do an OTK style steering using heims on everything. Then I think some more tubing is going into the cage.

You said you went from 4.5" lift to 8" after the axles. How did that happen? Did you use blocks in the rear to level it out with the front of what? I'm confused haha

I used the 4.5" coils. It netted this much new lift because the coils sit on top of the radius arms, and I made my own coil buckets that sit a tad higher also. So all in all, it raised it an extra 3 inches. Correct, for the rear, I just threw some blocks under the springs. Never had any issues with the blocks.
