1996 Cherokee 4x4 4.0 Auto Stock. Sorry, I searched, but I have some possible variables here that may have caused the problem
Looked at several different lifts, decided I didnt want to go crazy after reading and reading and reading on this forum.
Found a guy selling a full leaf pack and springs from rough country. 3 inch Lift I picked up for $100. It was just sway bar, springs and leafs.
After much cussing, bleeding, sweating and beer, I have it 99% installed. However, unless I missed it from weeks of reading I thought with a 3 inch lift I could use stock control arms. They are about an inch off now. I have the jeep on jack stands and the axle supported by a jack. Move up, wont fit. Move down wont fit.
So one of two things 1) the guy wasnt honest and it is a miss match pack and the springs are longer than three inches lift (which seems unlikely as they were of similar wear etc) or 2) I missed that I will need to buy arms or something. I measured before lift and back end came up 2 3/4 inches.
So please help, what is the cheapest option to fix this. I only spent $100 on the lift and dont want to ebay adjustable arms for $190.00
Is there a simple fix I can do here or bite the bullet. Thanks in advance for all your help as it has been invaluable thus far.
