lift questions
i haven't really looked into lifts just yet but i am wondering how much difference is it really going to make getting a 4.5 suspension lift vs. getting a 3 inch suspension lift and and 2 inch body. besides saving money and being able to save up 2 small amounts vs. one large amount.

Jesus...
It is impossible for a cherokee to have a body lift
There is a quite a bit of extra stuff you have to do in order to go from 3 to 4.5
4.5 is gonna be much more expensive, and require a good bit more work.
There is a search tool on this forum, use it.

Not gonna be able to find much in the 500 dollar range as far as a 4.5 inch lift goes. 500 will get you a budget 3 inch lift.

You could get that but add a leafs suck...and rough country is about the cheapest brand when it comes to lifts.
