yes, so humorous. i chose to not answer because of the bad spelling and improper of wording.

someone always has to bring up something relating to size of stuff. usually girls. not knowing the person and since they did not use any smilies to indicate humor i felt it was better to let it go.

Yeah, I wouldnt drive a liberty because of the engine as well. I dont think they look all that cool. However, if it had the diesel I wouldnt complain.

gotta point it out man... but as far as "taller".... it looks like your stock cherokee has just as much ground clearance as her lifted liberty... the roofline is not what gives you more ground clearance... just less clearance for tree branches.

4.5 inches? Man, I got like 9 inches....


It all depends on how you use all the "height".

Sure, having ground clearance helps, but being able to flex is what counts...

the way some of the posts have gone on here, this one makes anybody with saggy springs sound like an old man.

you think a flux-capacitor would work in a cherokee? you know, do a little time travel to when it was in its prime? lol

My cherokee is going to require all the springs to be replaced, this jeep is a lot lower then our 95 cherokee was. I am going to end up getting a 3" so I can put new springs in and leafs.

I think I do have more ground clearance now though.

The liberty is a decent truck for a family car though and does well off road. The wifed likes it alot
