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.
