Hi all, ignore the profile pic, thats gone....   i have just brought a Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7 and need to lift it by about 3 to 4 inches, can some one please let me know where i can get the replacement springs for said lift or is there a cheating method ie landrover springs....  or some thing??

Hold on there..get used to it first you lucky person

Lifting a GC will NOT involve Landy parts

Suspects for parts include

Quadratec
4WD Hardware
Rustys off road - all US

Advice -NAGCA

FTE
Llama 4x4 - UK

Initially your best web site for the UKwith greatest respect to here is to head to Birty Dastards Jeep Club...

Good luck BF

You need to decide what tyres to put on it before deciding on a lift. The WJ in particular has
very small wheel wells, and even moderately sized tyres can need a big lift or cutting the
arches. Unfortunately big lifts need other bits too. You might need a slip yoke eliminator
for example, and invariably a diff re-gear. You will have questions that you'll find the answers
to at Birtys (UK based), otherwise as Stew suggests,  nagca.org (US based).
Get your wallet out, this could get pricey (especially if you have lpg, which will ruin a 4.7).

I've a 4.0 ZG with 4 inch off lift on the springs running 33" simex on stock rims with +35mm spacers. No scrubbing or touching anywhere.

Get about 12mpg with that setup though.  It's about 6 1/2 inch over stock at the sills.

But a ZG is a totally difernt vehicle
