i have a 97 cherokee sport. its my daily driver never goes off road. i just installed a 3inch lift which was front spings and rear add a leafs. im not getting any vibrations from the drive shaft as of now. i just bought 33x12.5 tires on mickey thompson rims. tried to put them on but they rub. so i have a 2inch spacer i was going to put in the front and do a shackle in the rear. Am i going to need a sye or would a tcase drop just do the trick? it just gets drivin back and forth to work and wont be off roading with it so i think i should be set but would like to hear what you think. Thanks!

 

no just do a tcase drop its a lot cheaper

 

tc drop is 20 bucks at rustys and is all yer gona need

 

If it doesn't have vibes when your done you should be good. If it does I would go SYE over anything else....drop kits are a sort of band-aid. They can and do help but not the best option either.

At 5" your angles are going to be getting pretty steep and vibes are going to be likely.

 

im at 6.5 with t case drop. no vibes. but id say stay with 3 inch and trim to fit 33's. or get 4.5 inch coils. never been a fan of spacers

 

Lucky. I got vibes at 4.5". I agree with triming no reason 33's wouldn't work on that.

 

I'm trying to get away without trimming. I put one front on and couldn't even turn the wheel a 1/4 turn they rubbed bad just sitting.

 

What back spacing do your wheels have? that can make a big difference to.

 

I don't know the back spacing. I put the 2 extra inches in today fronts still rub going to have to trim them I guess.
