UPCOUNTRY OPTION
---------
If you would like to duplicate the factory Upcountry option in its more important parts (i.e., the suspension) in your Cherokee XJ 1991-1996 (and probably earlier and later years), you can purchase everything here at Amazon. You will need the following:

Moog CC782 coil springs (sold by the pair) - .
Moog CC782 Variable Rate Coil Spring"><span style=Moog CC782 Variable Rate Coil Spring" /> Moog CC782 Variable Rate Coil Spring">Moog CC782 Variable Rate Coil Spring


Crown 4886186AA leaf springs (sold each, so order two) - .
Crown Automotive 4886186AA Leaf Spring Assembly; For Use w/LT/ZGW/ZVW; Heavy Duty; 4 Leaf;"><span style=Crown Automotive 4886186AA Leaf Spring Assembly; For Use w/LT/ZGW/ZVW; Heavy Duty; 4 Leaf;" /> Crown Automotive 4886186AA Leaf Spring Assembly; For Use w/LT/ZGW/ZVW; Heavy Duty; 4 Leaf;">Crown Automotive 4886186AA Leaf Spring Assembly; For Use w/LT/ZGW/ZVW; Heavy Duty; 4 Leaf;


Zone 2100J 0.75 inch spacers (the Crowns have a little too much lift: these restore the correct front-to-rear ratio) - .
Zone Offroad Coil Spring Spacers 3/4" (pair)"><span style=Zone Offroad Coil Spring Spacers 3/4" (pair)" /> Zone Offroad Coil Spring Spacers 3/4" (pair)">Zone Offroad Coil Spring Spacers 3/4" (pair)


Monroe Sensa Trac 37083 front shocks (adequate and a good value, order two) - .
Monroe 37083 Sensa-Trac Light Truck Shock Absorber"><span style=Monroe 37083 Sensa-Trac Light Truck Shock Absorber" /> Monroe 37083 Sensa-Trac Light Truck Shock Absorber">Monroe 37083 Sensa-Trac Light Truck Shock Absorber
Monroe Sensa Trac 37027 rear shocks (as above, order two) - .
Monroe 37027 Sensa-Trac Light Truck Shock Absorber"><span style=Monroe 37027 Sensa-Trac Light Truck Shock Absorber" /> Monroe 37027 Sensa-Trac Light Truck Shock Absorber">Monroe 37027 Sensa-Trac Light Truck Shock Absorber


Energy Suspension 22109B rear polyurethane bushings (easier to install, GREASE POLY's THOROUGHLY!!!) - .
Rear Leaf Spring Bushing Set Black 1984-2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ # 22109G"><span style=Rear Leaf Spring Bushing Set Black 1984-2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ # 22109G" /> Rear Leaf Spring Bushing Set Black 1984-2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ # 22109G">Rear Leaf Spring Bushing Set Black 1984-2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ # 22109G


...and there you have it. YMMV, but on my 1996 Cherokee XJ Sport, the replacement parts above (except shocks: but I would have used those; I just got a great deal on the monotubes) gave me the equivalent of a 1.75 inch lift, and a brand new HD suspension at a bargain price. If you're reasonably handy with tools, you will save a bundle of money, and be inordinately pleased with the final result.
