Changing the "Find it on ebay" search to google may help some folks out. Cherokeeforum is usually one of the first results when you type problems into google anyways.

haha.. it will lift it however tall the kit is... ie, my 2" BB from fatbobsgarage(.com) (<---- awesome, legit, speedy!!!) raised me 2"...

also, i can get my 235's to rub in the front w/ the 2" BB so idk, dont big eye it and come up short... big treads are nice for helping pumpkin clearance, but dont sacrifice driveability...

So any of the tbirds will give a stock jeep atleast 3" or so inches of lift? Just wondering cause I was at the jy today and was going to pull some v6 or v8 ones out but the could looked shorter them jeeps stocks springs... Is it just the spring and isolater that we use for it? Thank you
