    CVs are easy. Helped my buddy do some on his car and it took about 30 mins a side with power tools.

    I was either thinking that or a IRO 3" with JKS quicker disconnects and a few other things. I dont see how I can only clear 31s on a 3" lift. I thought I could at least do 33s

    Would have to trim for 33's.

    My buddy is a jeep freak.

    He has a Rubicon built to the gills for rock crawling. He has a Scrambler body on a stretched TJ frame with a custom 4-Link and Dana 60 front and rear. On board air, etc, etc...... A willys project and another CJ-5 project.

    Anyway, his wife had a regular cherokee, 4'' lift and 31's. Looked perfect. Don't stuff the fenders, I hate the stuffed look. Just my opinion though.

    There is a black cherokee (like yours) up here, I'd say 6-8'' of lift on 35's. Very nasty!!!

    But if you do more than a 4'' lift, your are gonna want to get a long arm kit. Too much lift with short 4-link arms is bouncy! Long arm kits obviously are gonna be a lil more though too.

    Ok, think i rambled enough.

    Oh...one more thing, to help with driveline vibration with a lift (short rear shaft), buy a SYE and slip shaft. Best thing I ever did when I had my wrangler on 35's with its long arm kit.
