4.5 Inch Lift Kit | Jeep Cherokee XJ (84-01)

Built for XJ Cherokee owners who want maximum ground clearance without sacrificing ride quality — this 4.5-inch lift kit transforms your compact classic into a serious trail machine. You'll gain real articulation and tire clearance while preserving the geometry that keeps your Jeep handling predictably both on and off pavement.

Installed and serviced at Road Runner Wheels & Tires. Most kits go in the same day. Call (678) 400-6467 to schedule.

What you get up front

• Front coil springs — engineered to carry the lift load and maintain ride comfort under load.
• Front control arms — geometry-corrected to preserve caster and steering feel as ride height increases.
• Bump stops and brackets — ensure suspension travel stays controlled through full articulation.

Out back

Rear leaf springs are included and matched to your driveline choice — whether you're running a Chrysler 8.25 or Dana 35 axle, the spring pack works in concert with your shocks to deliver predictable handling both on the trail and during daily driving.

Pick your shocks

• BDS NX2 Nitro — responsive, tuned for a balanced on-road and light-off-road ride, and priced right.
• FOX 2.0 Performance Series — position-sensitive damping handles bigger bumps and deeper articulation with poise.

Important notes

• This kit is engineered for your specific axle configuration — Chrysler 8.25 or Dana 35. Confirm your rear axle before ordering.
• Tire clearance increases significantly; verify your tire size and backspacing with us before install to avoid rubbing at full articulation.
