Pros | ~2.5 inch lift closer to stock height, didn't require TC drop or SYE. Springs and shocks are designed and road tested to work with the Jeep Cherokee XJ. Provides a good ride on and off-road. |
Cons | None that I can think of. |
Recommended | yes |
Comments: Several years, with significant number of miles has gone by since lift was first installed. Lift is still working well for my needs.
Rear Springs CS035RA/B (with overload spring), N series shocks.
This OME lift uses heavier duty spring set than stock to provide a good ride lifting to approx. ~2.5 inches higher than stock. Enough to save the exhaust while on less severe terrains off-road, e.g. Logging roads, lighter trails, forest service roads, etc.
Lift works with heavier payloads and towing. Doesn't change rear height by more than an ~inch when a payload is added. Lift and suspension worked well while towing a ~2500 lb. trailer. (note: not recommended for more extreme payloads, e.g. a trailer with a TW designed for a one plus ton truck, etc.)
e.g. CS033RA/B rear springs is a heavier duty version providing a higher lift and stiffer ride.
At the time of installation wasn't looking for a higher lift. If needing to go higher would be looking at a 3.5 - 4 inch minimum lift. Higher lifts often require other modifications to the steering, driveline and suspension, with a significant increase in cost using larger tires, re-gearing, lockers, SYE and other modifications to suspension, steering and possibly braking modifications.
