im looking to lift my 88 cherokee chief and run some 31s what is the best lift to use? im looking for something that wont break the bank but still decent quality. the jeep is my daily in the winter i just want to set it up just a little bit. from what i have read the lift would be 3.5 up front and 3 in the rear. any info or tips just let me know thanks Dan

My rough country 3 inch lift I have is well priced and has great quality. Get the full leaf pack though, the AAL (which i have...) makes for a real uncomfortable drive.

I have the same dilema, i want to lift mine a bit but i don't know what to get...what about those blocks and U bolts kits that a saw at pepboys for $30? Are they any good? And 3" spacers for the front coils? I don't know ... I need awnsers too

You get what you pay for

dont drive good anymore? i dont wanna lose drive quailty thats for sure. so the RC kit with the new rear leafs is the way to go?

Gee oh Dee

I love my BDS lift.

Believe it or not when i was looking at that kit ,,, a little devil on my shoulder told me the same thing and made me walk away...what should i get? I just want a little boost , i dont want big tires or anything extreme just a small modification

The aal subtracts from ride quality a little bit, but it rides better than stock.

xjmafia

so your better off with a whole new leaf set up rather then aal? i posted 2 links to the kits i was looking at. im thinking of ordering that RC kit

Luijeep

Thank you xjmafia!!! So that means that shackles , spacers and good shocks will give me what i'm looking for?

nothing rides better than a full rubicon express lift. Its all about the shock though. I found that a 3000 series works the best. Find a shock that is equal to your weight.

Yeah, the full leaf pack is a more expensive option, but defintiely worth the trouble.
