Body Lifts

[Tenacious_T]

Where can i get a good cheap body lift kit for my '93 jeep cherokee? And also, is a body lift worse than a suspension lift?

Now im wondering, is it even possible to get a body lift on a 93 cherokee?

Cherokees are UNIBODY meaning the body and frame are one piece. Therfore the only way to lift a cherokee is by using a suspension lift :mrgreen:

Which is of course about 5 times as expensive

How about a shackle lift? tug

Can anyone give me a website with some good cheap ones? I'm on a highschool no job budget . And im not going to be doing any serious offroading.

This is about as cheap as your gonna find. Some people have used these in the past, and most have loved them.

Not possible for body lift on unibody frames. You can get a kit from daystar for a quick 2" to fit 31" tires. The kit is a 2" poly coil spacer and a 1 3/4" rear shackle.

Daystar, rubiconexpress.com, rustysoffroad.com, the kit is normally about $92 i know from daystar and that's with shipping included.

the problem with getting spacers and shackels(i have been researching a cheap lift for my 95 XJ) is that spacers make your steering less precise and more sorta mushy. Larger shackles(the kind that lift your rear) can break if you hit an obstacle at the wrong angle while offroading. If this happens then ur in some deep shit.. I actually found a 3 inch rusty lift with 4 front hydro shocks, 2 new front coils, rear add-a-leaf, and brake line extensions... the whole kit costs about 250 bucks plus maybe 50 for shipping(you could probably bargain out some free shipping). and as for installation, a little lift kit like that is easy to do with a buddy in one long afternoon.
good luck
