So by any chance does someone have the measurement of what the trac bar should be set to for a 4" lift?
Few people have already said to drill a new hole and just use the factory bar. Instead do I just adjust the new one the same amount they same to drill over?

Finally got everything bolted up and set in perfect. The only thing is that the extended shackle hits the exhaust but I'll adjust it later other wise it rides great. Little more body roll but that's b/c I removed the rear sway bar.
These are pictures before and after.
2" with 31's

4" with 31's

I'm thinkin about taking off my rear sway bar but am curious about the handling.. what do you think? Also in a year or so I will be towing a small 18' fiberglass het boat. Thinking the sway bar will be necessary. Anyone fab up quick discos?

i was told that the rear sway bar was a factory delete on cherokees with a towing package and that taking it off wouldn't effect it at all. i dont plan on towing anything with mine but you do feel a little more body roll without it hooked up. i'm haven't hooked up my front sway bar tho so i felt it a little more when driving to work today
