So they started making the Cherokee in 84. I'm sure it didn't take people long to start modifying them. Who has the oldest suspension lift on here??

 

I'm subscribing to find out who too, lol

 

Me too lol..I've had mine since 2004 or 2005, can pin it down exactly...

 

Nobody?? I know mine's not the oldest. It's going on monday. lol.

 

The po put the lift on back in, I want to say 92. He got it from some guy in Colorado and he told me he had the first lifted cherokee for a while in his area

 

My Dad put it on back in 2000.

 

bump this thread! im sure some people got some ancient lifts lol

 

It was mine.

Right off the factory floor it was taken to a shop, lifted, then taken to a dealership to be used as an advertisement.

 

are you forreal or just joking??

 

 

3 months so far dont think i win for oldest but maybe contention for newest? lol prob not

 

Legend has it, from a guy that's been lifting Jeeps for a long time, that the original lift in the front was stacking the rubber coil isolators

 

a buddy of mine had an xj that was built in the early 90's. Every so often he would find a picture of his jeep wheeling somewhere long before he owned it and he'd show me lol.

I know trailmaster had control arm drop brackets before RE and long before longarms and rough country drop brackets. Looks like they stopped making those though.

 

a neighbor has a 87 (I think) j10 that he got from the factory and I think he put a lift on it almost right away. its a 3" lift.

I don't know about back then but right now if you scrape the dirt off the shocks they say rancho lol

 

I know some guys I went to school with back in 90 had lifts on there XJs' along with everything else. But we had a shop here in Bakersfield called Eds' 4x4 long closed now, along with slammed by Dans', worked there we did lifts too.
