Hey guys new to the site, been lurking awhile and reading up on all the mods you guys have done with your rigs. My hat is off to you guys, lots of neat mods and some pure genius.
While searching I came across several post that refered to 17" as the stock height from the Center Cap to the Fender well to check for sagging suspension.
Well I checked mine this morning and it meassure 18" front and rear? I saw several post when referring to Lifts that reference not all Cherokee's are equal and from one to the next you may need to drop the transfer case - you may not.
But I was surprised to see 18" Center Cap to Fender when I saw numerous post all referencing 17" as the norm. Any idea whats up with that?
My question are:
1. Will 30 x 9.5 /15 fit as the Cherokee sits with 18" from Center cap to Fender without any rubbing?
I'm also looking at a 3" - 3.5" lift for my 98' Cherokee Sport Chrysler 8.25" rear (Based upon the Flat bottom of the differential).
2. Can you think of anything additional I will need above the 1" trans drop to eliminate any vibes with a 3"-3.5" lift? I'm looking at the RE or Rusty's complete kits either AAL or full spring pack kits.
My wheeling will be from the mild to moderate (ranch work etc) - No current plans for the Rubicon - so I don't need a rock buggy.
Thx,
Bruce
