If I recall correctly your jeep has the pull out style knob for the headlights right? If so I would check the wire connections at the back of this switch and also the connections at the tail light sockets. Often times the wire either frays or just simply rusts off its connector. Bottom line is that if the other lights work and the fuse isn't blown your problem is with the wire somewhere between the switch and the lamp. Good luck.

The problem with a Grand Cherokee is that it is a unibody, meaning that the body IS the frame. A body lift works by putting a spacer between the frame and body of a truck that has a conventional frame, thus lifting the body off the frame. This is impossible with a unibody truck like the Grand Cherokee. You HAVE to get a more expensive suspension lift.

The grand cherokee is a unibody and cant have a body lift. There is no difference between grand cherokee models. Any lift will work on a grand. You could go with a coil spacer lift or a more expensive full lift kit.

well i am not going to beat a dead horse and say what they said, but they are correct. i got my 3 inch pro comp suspension lift out the door for under 1000 at 4 wheel parts just outside of san diego. get you a 3 inch lift with some 31s and you will be set. i have also run 32s with some trimming, BUT i wouldn't suggest it for a heavy mudder. those zj's have really weak axles dana 30 in the front and 35 in the back so they wouldn't last long.
