My other cherokee, has a 4.5" Rough country AAL kit which Really sucks my left nut.... another story... Anyways I've been in progress of swapping the kits between the two because I'd...

    Full Traction lift height

    My 92 sits with the front end about an inch higher then the rear, and then my rear drivers side sits about an inch lower then the passenger side, it looks really awkward but only noticeable by me when I stare at it. my lift was an AAL kit though so I imagine a new pack would fix it.

    What is a good custom suspension book?

    I'm not aware of any, however there is an Excellent article on the petersons website (under suspension) on how to "correctly" design a four link. Otherwise I might check out the pirate boards for some more design topics.

    BFG M/T vs. Goodyear MT/R

    I run Mt/rs on my XJ and BFG's on my Daily, and all I have to say about the MT/R's are that they are a good rock/street tire, but mud/snow or any combination proves detrimental to me (open diffs) The BFG's supposedly last longer due to the harder compound (my set's got 20k on and they are about...

    Weird Alignment Issues

    Did you do anything with the track bar? My rough country kit came with a drop bracket, but those things are worthless no one runs them. So my front end is located about 1.5" to drivers side, it probably puts alot of pressure and could mess it up? I haven't checked mine in about 7k miles...

    Stock track bar ?

    You could probably pull a stock trackbar quickly from a junkyard XJ and mess around with it before you take yours out (in case you mess it up) But with a RE adjustable only like $180 I might not skip on something as important as the trackbar

    How to Mount Plexiglass "windshield"

    Well I'd say cut it to size and either put some sheetmetal screws through holes in it, or just urethane the whole thing in. Primer the metal and pinch weld up with urethane primer so it'd stick. Plexiglass sucks though for a driving windshield, it'll be beat to hell quick. If you can at all...

    Aftermarket Motor Mounts?

    I believe the motor mounts on my XJ are near death, after being under such high tourqing in off-road situations the 14 year old bushing are dead I think. Was wondering who offers aftermarket ones and which are the best? I found some the other day with poly bushings and a 1" raise to help...

    death wobble PITA

    When I first did my lift I had bad DW on the highway on bumps. An alignment didn't correct the problem, so when I put my new, balanced MT/R's on, the DW weant away but it still has a slight wobble around 50-55 mph. I'm still using the stock track bar with no drop bracket, I'm confident that a...
