The 3" Series II kit for the Jeep XJ Cherokee includes new front coil springs giving your Jeep better ride quality and more flexing ability. Also contains rear add-a-leafs, 4 shocks and is upgradeable with new leaf springs.. .
Comments: This is my first lift. I tried to get any with something inexpensive...
needless to say you get what you pay for. The front coil springs are holding up just fine. The rear add-a-leafs are crap. had to install shackles just to get the rear end level. The shocks are gone already. Installed this kit last summer(2007). If you're looking for a kit, spend the extra cash and get something better. Stay away from aal's.
Comments: The shocks that came with the system are horrible. They rust out within a year and look pretty bad. The add a leaves would be ok if the leaf pack wasn't worn out. Suggestion: Upgrade to full leaf packs and nitro shocks, Stay away from hydro
Comments: actually a 4" kit, seems to work well. Likes to break control arm mounts..feels beefy and flex's good. Shocks are stiff, but decently priced.
Comments: So far, no complaints! It's a decent ride on road; no issues offroad. The shocks are probably not the best in the world, but you can't beat it for the price.
Comments: I got this lift as a Christmas present. The lift was easy to install. Took me and a couple buddies about 4 hours to install. Just be careful if you order it from JC Whitney because they will send you the wrong size U-Bolts for it. Other then that all around good lift kit and it looks good on my Jeep.
Comments: For the price its not bad but it does live up to its name "Rough" Country. Next time I'll pay the extra money and get the taller struts instead of a spacer.
Comments: i put a 3 inch rough country kit in my xj with front coils and rear add a leaf with shocks all around. this kit completely leveled out the whole jeep, it sits perfect and this is a great lift kit and resonably priced
Comments: pretty good lift kit. I still could use another inch or so of lift, so I would go with a 4" or so instead of a 3". But overall a quality kit.
Comments: This lift kit is working out good so far. The only thing that makes me rate the lift a 5 is when i recieved the lift through the mail one of the shocks was freaking blown. It was squirting out oil like a needle. I called and complained and they sent me another one free of charge. The shock they sent me didn't come with any of the mounting equipment so i had to rip apart the other shock and transfer everything over.
