Default level ?

1994 cherokee, stock, have 3in blocks rear and 3 inch coils front for it(yet to install). I also have rc 1-2 in adj rear shackle, and a daystar 1in coil spacer for the front. If i put all this together, i set the shackle at the 1 inch (lowest setting) and install the 1 inch spacer in front, combined with the 3in lift, can i expect it to be somewhat level?? My rear leafs sit up good, no sag, also, could 32'swork with this set-up?? For wheels, i have pro comp d-window 15x8/3.75 bs, have not purchsed tires yet!

Alotta guys are gonna tell you not to use blocks on the back but from what I've seen they work OK if you take care to do it right. That being said I don't recommend blocks in the back. I know with a 3" kit my rear always sat a tad lower annoyed me till I cut out my rear flares and now it at least looks level. Sounds like it should be pretty level. Although I prefer the front a shade lower. Your wheel/tire combo should work with slight trimming.

Oh, im not a fan of blocks either, i paid 300 for the jeep and engine (if ya saw the pics), the lift stuff came in the cargo area, was included in the purchase, maybe this summer, id love to get a brand new 4.5 kit with full leafs! Then again, my buddy has a 007 unlimited, he just put the hemi in out of his dads wrecked daytona charger.... Have to say, i was a little more than impressed, have to get some pics!!
