    Description

    Advanced Suspension Upgrade. The Rough Country Suspension 4.50-Inch Long Arm Suspension Lift Kit with Rear Add-A-Leafs and V2 Monotube Shocks enhances the off-road performance and ride quality of your Jeep Cherokee XJ. Designed to improve suspension articulation, ground clearance, and alignment, this lift kit is essential for tackling challenging terrains while maintaining daily drivability.

    Construction and Appearance. Crafted with heavy-duty high-clearance lower control arms and extreme-travel long arms featuring oversized flex joints, the kit ensures durability and longevity. The components are fully greasable and include Clevite OEM-style rubber bushings for smooth operation. The shocks employ a monotube design with nitrogen charging for efficient heat dissipation and enhanced ride comfort, complemented by a sleek, brushed aluminum finish on the V2 shocks.

    Installation. Installation is moderately challenging, suitable for experienced installers or professionals. The kit is fully bolt-on with no drilling required, estimated to take 8-9 hours for completion.

    Warranty. This product carries a 3-year manufacturer’s warranty on the included shock absorbers.

    Application. Specifically designed to fit Jeep Cherokee XJ models from 1984 to 2001 equipped with the NP242 transfer case. It is not compatible with vehicles featuring 2.8L V-6 or diesel engines, AX5 transmissions, or 1987-1989 models with Peugeot manual transmissions. Installation with 33-inch tires requires fender trimming.
