well if your going for look over performance then go for it. either way its your rig man, if you want to do something then do it. but lifting the front higher in my opinion wouldnt look good, would make it just look like the springs are sagging or your always carrying a full load. plus your departure angle wouldn't be as good and would be more likely to hurt your gas tank or tear off your rear bumper (if its still stock)

my buddy's cherokee sits like that, its 6.5 in the front and 4.5 in the back, the po broke one of the lift shackles so he put the stock ones in it, he hates it though cause of what irongrave said, the back end takes all the hits now, and thats the gas tank, and he just hates the way it looks, but hey who am i to tell you what to do to your jeep, i know i dont listen to anyone when i do anything to mine, so why should you

na its cool im a total newb and thought it would look kind of cool. but if it comes down to damaging my cherokee and not even ending up looking good at all, then i think ill be taking your guys' advice.

Id rather my 4wheel drive sit level or down a hair in the back. I cant stand how it looks for something to sit higher in the back, like you got the 70's style arched springs in the back i call that "soddy slant"... Anyone from around my area knows what i mean.
