Question 2006 WK 5.7 questions (sorry noob post?)

Hey guys, first time poster from Birmingham, AL. I hope Im not reposting here, but I couldn't use the forum search feature from my phone. I'm considering getting a 2006 limited grand Cherokee 5.7 hemi. I'm interested in doing slight modification such as intake/exhaust/lift. I've been googling fairly extensively but it seems to be pretty hard to find the information I need. A couple of questions I have for you more experienced and knowledgeable jeep owners:

- what size is the navigation head unit? I have a double din DVD player I would like to install, but I can't find the necessary dimensions or wiring kits.

- what is the verdict on suspension-spacing lifts? Are they durable/effective? I haven't found many affordable body lift/coilover kits.


I'm sure there are more things I could ask but they escape me for now. I appreciate any feedback!

No body lift, it's a unibody vehicle.

I have no clue on the radio size but about the exhaust and intake stick to well known name brands you'll be fine.On the lift depends how much of a lift you want and tire size being used.

I think the WK has an IFS suspension, not sure if there is any lift kits available for it.

Yeah it is a if but there is lifts out there http://zoneoffroad.com/product?ki=365&gr=-1 i believe superlift made it its a 4 inch and is the biggest i found.If you want to off road it and a bigger lift i would look in to the older body style those are easier to lift and have big lifts.
