Hey, what's up guys...
I got a 2001 Jeep Cherokee Sport, 4.0, Auto, NP231 T-case, 4x4, LP DANA30, C8.25.
The jeep is completely stock, with the exception of 1 1/2 transfer case drop spacers. I didn't know what the need for them was until I took them off and put the crossmember back on the way it should've came from factory, after I did that I noticed that my transfer case, transmission and exhaust is sitting way higher than it should be. I thought maybe it wouldn't be a problem, so I took it for a test drive and whenever I hit certain bumps, I can hear and feel something hitting on my floorboard or crossmember. So what I have done is, changed out motor mounts, and transmission mount (it has the non offset mount). Also inspected the crossmember to see if its bent, I'm gonna be doing an RE 5.5 Long Arm lift so I have mocked up the RE crossmember/Skidplate to see where it will be sitting after the lift, and it doesn't make a difference, it's still sitting high! I have throughly inspected the jeep for signs of a wreck, every body part has the vin numper sticker on it. I'd like to hear some other opinions from you guys please!
