Default New guy from Indiana!!

Whats up guys! Decided to join the fourms to help me kick stuff off with my Jeep. I recently got my dads 1995 Jeep Cherokee Country, its my first vehicle. Looking forward to putting some mods into it. I want to put a lift kit on it. But i have no idea where to start and what to do.. So if any members could help me out by telling me where to post to get the help that i need would be greatley appreciated!! Looking forward to posting alot on here.

check out the lift/tire thread in Cherokee Chat. It has tons of great photos and what guys have done to their jeeps. If you want a nice lift but dont want to change a lot of stuff and keep the price down you are going to be limited to around a 3" lift. That is how much my jeep has at the moment. Any more lift and you are going to start looking at changing control arms and getting a SYE (slip yoke eliminator) and new drive shafts. I've attached a 3" RC lift that I would recommend. One tip - dont buy AAL's (add a leaf's) it is a cheap way to lift the back end and will start to sag within a year. Go buy a full new leaf pack if lifting the rear. Also, don't use blocks in the rear.
