Jeep Cherokee XJ 8-1/2" Lift Kit

This kit comes with front and rear Pro-Ride coils springs and matching BDS 5500 series shock absorbers. These coils are made from 5160 spring steel and pre-set to handle anything that you can throw at them. The kit includes long adjustable upper control arms with flex ends. The long lower control arms are adjustable and are made from 1-3/4" OD 0.250" wall DOM tubing. An extreme drop pitman arm is included to match the new adjustable track bar. BDS' ultimate sway bar disconnects are included to allow for some serious off road flex. New Kevlar lined stainless steel brake lines are included. No welding to the uni-body is required nor is it recommended. A new heavy duty belly pan is included to gain ground clearance as well as offer serious protection. The rear is lifted with new BDS Glide-Ride 5" leaf springs with greasable 1" extended shackles and a 2" block allows the springs to really flex. This is a serious off road system that is made to perform off road and still be able to drive it home!

Critcal Selection: Model Year Selection

The model year of your XJ will determine the style of replacement front bump stop needed. Early model (87-96) XJ bump stops have a larger diameter mounting end compared to the late model (97-01) XJs. However, some 95-96 models did use the smaller late model style. If you are unsure of what year range bump stop design you need please contact our sales or tech support and we will help you verify the proper kit for your XJ.
