Sorry to derail things, but how much lift and tire does this Cherokee have?

Not to speak for JR, (I guess I will anyway),
it has Ranch front 2.5" springs with a block in the rear. Tires are nice and new BFG KO2s 32x11.50r15. I love those tires.

Rancho! That's who it is, sorry my new Cherokee has the same lift but I couldn't for the life of me remember who makes the 2.5".

Re: Thanksgiving in the Desert UPDATED
Yep, Kevin is right on the suspension. Local shop put the kit in back in the early '90s (if I remember correctly). Jeep has new Sykjackers installed. I need to look into this shackle flip thing everyone talks about. BFGs are great. These are my second set. Best part is no whine whatsoever doing 75 on the highway.
