Lifting the Jeep Cherokee XJ 7.5"
In the last video I failed to fix my rear leaf springs and two weeks after the video they actually started to bed the other way. I decided to accept that they were dead and bought a pair of Rubicon Express 5.5" lifted leaf springs. Knowing that these would probably amount to 7.5" with the Shackle Relocation Brackets I needed to make a decision on lifting the front or fabricating new shackles for the back.
This video is a bit of a mish mash of installing a lift kit and some custom DIY budget trouble shooting resulting in a 'just getting away with it' but definitely needing an SYE and Long Arms in the near future!
