I am trying to level my 2000 cherokee, however the aal's I purchased lift it 2+ inches. Can I cut these down to get the 1 inch I need?

Depending on how saggy your leafs are, that 2 inches might level it.

What AAls did you purcahse? You'd be better off just inserting a spacer in the front. The AAL will sag out over time.
