Hey guys, first time cherokee owner here and this is also my first post. Just took purchase of a 2000 red classic with 97,000 miles in mint condition and I love it. 4.0 and AW4, with 8.25 rear end. I bought it for reliability reasons and because i have always wanted one. Now on to the reason for this thread. I got this cherokee and it had 30's on it.....stock was 215/75/15. a bit big and they only rub when loaded down with weight in the back. I obviously want to lift it a little bit because well....I can. Just want to freshen the looks up a bit and thought you guys would be the best to point me in the right direction. I have foraged through the posts and havent seen too much negativity about the combo i want to do.

Rough country 3" with AAL, springs, and control arms.

Rustys Crossmember With built in 1" transfer case drop

and Obviously I would get brake line extensions to do it right. I am going to switch to 235/75/15 tires since they are Close in size to 30's and I want to get Grabber at2's due to the fact that they are rated for sever snow. I live 3 blocks from work and am on a 24/48 hour schedule....so i dont put many miles on her haha. Thanks in advanced guys, I have done alot of research and just need some help from the experienced guys!!!!

maybe you didnt read enough. lol
rough country is known to be a rough ride. i have RC shocks and i don't think they're that bad but my jeep also had poop shocks previously so almost anything is better.

if you want to do it right at 3 inches you should look into an sye instead of TC drop. it does come down to preference and practicality if you off road often an sye will keep your clearance up while a TC drop will obviously lower it an inch. also at 3inches you might need either of them you might be just fine. hopefully you understand why you would need one of the two, but if you don't i suggest doing more research. hope that's helpful

I know they are a bit rough, ive read quite a few reviews that say that. but i did buy a cherokee, so i expected it to be rough. I drove a regular cab s10 before this, so anything feels like a rolls royce now haha. I dont do any offroading, and i do understand the concept of sye's and t-case drops. just wanting to freshen it up, and give it a nice stance without doing a giant lift kit. thanks for the help!
