what kind of lift should i go with?
i recently bought a 94 jeep grand cherokee limited with a 318 v8. the guy that had it before had 31's on it but they didnt fit at all so i dont think he lifted it up at all. i have absolutely no idea what i'm doing with my jeep to be honest.
but i wanna lift it up a little bit and i was wondering if you guys could give me some advice on how high you think i should go and what kind of kit i should buy. and also if theres other things i need to do along with a lift.
thanks alot

Are you just going to run the 31's? If so get a 2" BB and you'll be fine..
If you want bigger need tire size to help out..

A 2in bb is quite inexpensive and pretty easy to do. I am not sure if you still have to relocate the rear trac bar or not. I put in a spring kit which is replacing all 4 springs with ones 2 in higher. It came with a relocate adapter. I really like the ride it offers, also came with new longer shocks.

I will say that going to 31 from stock I felt a big difference in power. So going to 33s would really make me think of getting lower gears. But that is me, I hate a vehicle that does not have enough power. Guess that why my dd is a cummins powered truck. Good luck on the decision. It really comes down to what you want and how your going to use it.

To clear 32's I had to go 5.5" of lift.. The ZJ has rather small wheel openings.. As for best I'd have to say RE for anything under 8" or I'd go Clayton's...
