Built for Cherokee XJ owners who want maximum articulation and trail-ready geometry without sacrificing street manners, this 4.5-inch long-arm lift kit relocates your front control arms to dial in suspension geometry while unlocking serious off-road flex. You'll gain up to 35 degrees of lower-joint articulation, improved caster correction, and the clearance to run 33"–35" tires.

What's included
- 4.5-inch Coils — deliver the primary lift and are engineered to work with your factory mounting points.
- 4-inch Rear Leaf Springs (qty 2) — provide consistent ride height and are fully greasable for durability.
- Track Bar, Forged — solid-steel construction maintains alignment angles and prevents bump-steer as the suspension cycles through full travel.
- N3 Shock Box — contains your choice of N3, V2, or M1 monotube shocks with 10-stage variable valving and nitrogen charge for on-road comfort and trail control.
- High-Clearance Lower Control Arms — relocate to achieve optimum geometry; X-Flex design with Clevite OEM-style bushings, oversized 2.5-inch flex joints, and 1.25-inch threads allow upper joints to pivot 20 degrees and lower joints up to 35 degrees.
- Quick-Disconnect Sway Bar Links — let you drop the sway bar out of the way for maximum flex without tools.
Important notes
- This kit only fits models with the NP231 transfer case. Do NOT fit models with 2.8L V-6 or diesel engines due to weight variance.
- Does NOT fit AX5 transmissions or 1987–1989 models with Peugeot manual transmissions.
- If running 33-inch tires, fender trimming is required for clearance.
