Model: Cherokee (XJ)
Engine: 4.0L I6 HO, Lot's of Bolt Ons
Currently on 5" w/ 33's
I'm trying to get some more Belly Clearance, I got high centered on the last trip out. So I want to ditch my 1" TC Drop, but why stop there...
I want to go ahead and jump to 6" of lift for running 35's
What I know will work:
IRO OTK Steering, RE Trackbar & Rear Brake Line
The to do list:
1) Remove 1" TC Drop - New SYE w/ XJ Front Drive Shaft installed in Rear.
2) Front Brake Lines - Swap YJ Lines for Chevy Lines - Just a little bit longer
3) Install 1" Coil Spacer in Front
4) FAB 1" Shock Extensions all around
5) Long Arm Kit - TBD
6) Build a New Rear Bastard Pack to Level it out
Besides the Longarm and SYE which I already budgeted for. I think I can jump to a 6" Lift for Basically Free so why not?
Does anyone think I'm missing anything?

you'll gain 1" of belly lift by going to 35's. just accept that and save yourself the trouble
if you're getting hung on the belly you need some tcase protection. that case will break easier than you think

or build your own add on to the IRO crossmember. just make sure it's covered

I'm trying to make the point that there could be no work involved and you could keep the suspension unchanged.
but then again, it's your free time
