Product Details
Description
Upgrade your 1987-2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ with the Tuff Country Ez-Flex 3.5-inch lift kit. Built for off-road enthusiasts who want credible lifting performance, confident articulation, and lasting value, this complete system brings real trail capability with a trusted brand backing.
- Lift Height: 3.5 inches of suspension elevation to increase ground clearance and improve approach/departure angles.
- EZ-Flex Control Arms: Enhanced articulation for smooth wheel travel over rocks and uneven terrain.
- EZ-Ride Front Coil Springs: Tuned to deliver a balanced, comfortable ride on and off pavement.
- Shocks Included: SX8000 shocks provide dependable damping to absorb rough trail surfaces.
- Transfer Case Drop Included: Maintains proper driveline angles after lifting for smoother operation.
- Rear Blocks: Integrated rear lift support to help achieve a level stance.
- Tire Size Compatibility: Supports up to 31" x 10.5" tires for improved traction and stance.
- Rim Backspacing Requirement: Requires rims with 4.5" backspacing or less for correct fitment.
- Vehicle Fitment: Specifically designed for 1987–2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ 4WD platforms.
- Installation Note: Stock shocks are not long enough to mount with this kit; extended shocks are recommended for proper mounting.
- Warranty & Heritage: Backed by a limited lifetime warranty and supported by Tuff Country’s 35+ years of suspension expertise.
The result is improved ground clearance and enhanced off-road capability without compromising daily drivability. EZ-Flex arms preserve wheel travel and steering feel on challenging terrain, while the transfer case drop helps keep driveline angles in check for quieter, smoother operation. With up to 31" tires, you gain traction and a more commanding presence on rugged trails, all backed by a trusted brand and long-term warranty.
