looking for some real information on 3 to 4 inch lift kits. I need to know how they change the driving characteristics of the XJ. I have been considering Rubicon Exp., Skyjacker, TeraFlex, Rancho, and Tomken I would like to get some of the plus and minuses of each kit. I will be using the Cherokee as an every day car, but I still want to be able to tackel 4+ trails, and I don`t want to be looking at a redo or upgrade somewhere down the line. If anybody know or has one of these kits or another that they could recommend I would welcome the information

I just dropped a 3" Super lift on my 92 XJ two weeks ago, and love it. Its a soft ride for both street, and offroad. I also keeps the stock flex that I wanted. Matter of fact it has more wheel travel since there is added space between the axles, and bump stops. The price was right. The kit cost $288.00 for all 4 shocks, add-a-leaf, and coil springs for the front. The only problem I ran into is with the front coils. It took two coil spring compressors to get the old ones out, and the new ones in. The entire job took aprox 6hrs, and I'm no mechanic. :) I couldn't find anyone that had anything to say about the super lift kit good, or bad. No bad reviews are good reviews I guess.... hehehe... I have a friend that put a Pro Comp lift on his 91 XJ, and pulled it off the next day because of how rough it rode. Very stiff. Hope this helps.
