About this kit
4.5-Inch Lift Kit with V2 Shocks, fitment-checked
Rough Country 61770 is a 4.5-inch lift kit for 1984-2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ 4WD models built with the NP242 transfer case. The kit pairs 4.5-inch front coils with rear leaf springs, a forged adjustable track bar, a long arm box kit, and two V2 monotube shock pairs.
This 4.5-inch lift kit for the 1984-2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ 4WD covers Base, Chief, Laredo, Limited, Pioneer, Sport, and the other submodels listed in the fitment section, but only on Jeeps equipped with the NP242 transfer case. The long arm geometry, X-Flex control arms with greasable flex joints, and quick-disconnect sway bar links are aimed at articulation on rough terrain. Check the drivetrain and engine exclusions before ordering, and plan on trimming the fenders if you run 33-inch tires. A downloadable Rough Country installation guide is available.
