Up front the lift kit includes Glide-Ride coil springs, extended sway bar links, and a transfer case drop to maintain proper driveline angles.

Rear Axle Option Dana 35
The Jeep Cherokee was produced with two different rear axles (Chrysler 8.25 or Dana 35). You will need to measure your rear u-bolts to ensure that you get the correct new u-bolts. Basically, just measure the diameter of the axle or the I.D. of your rear u-bolts.
Chrysler axles require 3 inch wide u-bolts and Dana 35 axles require 2-3/4 inch wide u-bolts. Some 1987-90 models came with a Dana 44. Measure and call BDS for proper u-bolt fitment.

This comprehensive lift kit includes Glide-Ride coil springs that provide a smooth, predictable ride across diverse terrains. These coil springs are constructed from high-tensile steel, ensuring maximum durability without concerns of coil bind. Rear lift is achieved through a thoughtful combination of a long add-a-leaf and a 5/8 inch lift block. This setup raises the vehicle while preserving ride comfort—an essential feature for both daily drives and off-road adventures.
To optimize damping performance, customers can choose between the high-performance NX2 nitro series shocks or the FOX 2.0 Internal Floating Piston shocks. The FOX shocks come with significant design features, such as a robust aluminum body and race-developed high-flow piston design, delivering unparalleled stability and shock absorption.
Installation is a breeze with this 100% bolt-on kit, requiring no special tools. Maintaining proper driveline angles is ensured through the inclusion of a transfer case drop. This carefully curated suspension upgrade not only enhances your Jeep's handling but also revitalizes its overall driving experience.
For precise fitment, be prepared to verify your rear axle type, especially if your model falls within the 1987-1990 range, where a Dana 44 might be present. Upgrade your ride's capabilities and style with the BDS Suspension BDS431FS 3 Inch Lift Kit and embrace the thrill of off-roading.
