The front will but the rear of a grand is coil springs and the rear of your Cherokee is leaf springs. They don't exchange.

Not sure if that's a joke or not but don't do that.
Do Add a leaf, avoid blocks. Or do a new spring pack. If all else do bastard pack from a Dakota.

What year grand is it? 93-98 will work since the front is set up the same but 99 and newer is different and useless to you.
