New XJ owner
I will use it as my daily driver. I was driving today in rain and slipping all over the place. I will at most take it on dirt roads and open fields, maybe sand at the beach. so no real trails. Road performance is most important.

2 thing guy said he would take 250 I am going to pick up set after work.
I do not have a post delete button once I hit edit post.
On the tire front. Does it matter if I rotate these tires left to right? I had a set of car tires fall apart after doing that. I know what is in the linked add, I am just curious, is it a pretty good chance that a 15" rim marked jeep is going to fit my Cherokee? If the tires are 90% and 60% then I will just take them home and change a lot of tires and keep the current good 30" tire I have on the front as a spare.

So bought the 4 tires 250$ put them on. Rides a million times better. Still has a faint vibe in the 45 MPH range. It drives so nice now. Can not believe it has been driven all cadywampus for however long guy did before he sold it to me.
It has a BB 2" lift. could it need a T-case drop the vibe is really only in the 45 mph range.
My lift kit shows as delivered, I will pick it up from the Guard tomorrow i think new springs and shocks will solve more of the bad drive feeling, I hope at least.

OK...
So you can get 235/75's when your tires wear out because you didn't get an alignment. It doesn't matter if it tracks straight or not. How do you think the old tires managed to get worn so badly?

I am going to get it alined Thursday, that is first opportunity.
I know Jason LaLiberty from 4x4 group buy is on here I can not find him or you Jason. I have a question about an order and how it is shipped but can't find you. so If you know Jason or can link me to his account I would thank you all.
And I am getting a life time alignment from Firestone Thursday. Stryker thank you for suggestion about tires.
The only thing that has showed up for my lift kit is JKS quicker disconnects, I want to just put them on but think I should wait and do front all at once.

You either have a Chrysler 8.25 or a Dana 35 in the rear. Take a picture of it and I'll tell you what you have.
Or you can go by this.

THIS is an 8.25.

The leaf spring bolts are 14mm x 2.0 x 120mm long.
If I'm not mistaken you can get a whole new set at the dealership at around 3 dollars per bolt.

I am having trouble posting pictures.
I will try in a little while.
I think I have the 8.5 will try again to post pics.
Qudratec has the bolts sold as a set with nit and washer for 4$ and they have the coil spring isolator I need for like 3 $
I am looking for bushings now.
Anyone ever buy stuff from Fat Bobs garage?
So far he has the best prices on bushings.
