Hello Cherokee gods, I'm in the market for a lift kit and I found a used one on craigslist and I'm wondering if I should buy it. It is a 3 inch RC kit, with full packs. However, the guy doesn't have the shocks. The only problem is, he claims to have used it for a year and a half. Do lift kits sag like normal leafs? He wants $130 for it, I think that's pretty fair assuming everything is still in good condition.

So what do you all think? Should I buy it?

first off yes all lift kits sag/drop depending on how his rig may have been beaten on it may be a 3" lift or roughly around there, but if its a full leaf and full coil lift then i'd say its worth the cash to buy, lift shocks from RC for a 3" lift are around $120 or so on ebay, just find a seller that has a "submit an offer" sign and ask him if he'll take whatever the asking price is shipped, they usually say ok..

so for roughly $250 or so depending on what else you want to buy, you'll be set for the lift

He claims he just had it on for looks, but you can't ever really know, can you?
