HOW TO: Fit 35" tires on Jeep XJ Cherokee w/ Cut and Fold 

For a Xj on the 35" inch tires that thing looks like a beast

35s were big in 2000 when a 44/9 combo were beef . A 6-8 lift spring full width' 60/14 10 inch rear stretch 3 inch front bump stops and fender cutting gets you 44-47s properly bump stopped on an xj...kind of puts 33-35s in perspective.

35's going on a 3-4ish inch lift next week, thanks for the video. I plan to just have a crap ton of down travel and bump stops.

Sweet looking jeep men .

I’m looking to put 35 inch rims on mine with a 5.5 inch lift but trying to avoid the finder cutting cause it looks like shit

hey man you no Dat dare xj ain't no dam Billy goat lmao good video brother

When i seen that jeep i made all sorts of bedroom noises

Damn I ordered 6.5 inch lift thinking that would barely work if that’s 5 inches it looks Jacked to the heavens I think ima re think my planning board and go for a smaller lift

Im going to solv this by going to a 6.5 inch lift next week

Looks good man

you probably have spring sag i would look into getting new springs or even helper springs

I got 6.5 and i just cut alittle and it never rubs

What are the extended and collapsed lenghts of the shocks front and back?

Im getting a 4.5 inch long arm kit how much cutting will I need to do?

I know this is an old video, but how much up travel do you have, or space between the bump stops?, Im wondering because I think I have about 3.5 in of lift, with only a couple in or so between my bumps (though they compress a bit). it doesn't rub at all at full stuff(maybe in front at full stuff/lock???). but it seems to do ok and be well planted with alot of down travel... Just curious if I need more up travel/lift as I've only had a chance to flex it out with the 35's (no access to real trails/ off camber/ rocks yet) Any advice on minimum acceptable bump spacing/ up travel would be appreciated!

What is the rim and tire set up like what are all the measurements and what tire is that???

I see your not running sway bar end links. how does it handle? cause I have a 8.5 inch lift on my xj with 35's and when I run with no sway bar end links it sways pretty good

Scrubs scrubs scrubs scrubs scrubs lmao what is scrubbing lol do you me man rubbing?

That's a sexy ass Jeep. I have a 96 xj that I'm thinking about doing a 4.5 inch lift on. Would trimming mine like yours and adding the same bumpstops let me clear 35's easily?

did u mess with the gears for them 35s or they still stock .. clean xj bro

what lift and 3 link kit are you running? i have a rough country 4.5 inch. that was a mistake lol. im looking at a rusty's 8 inch long arm kit and maybe 1 tons... should be fun. i bent my stock front axle so I am looking at getting bigger/beefier ones

Could I run 35s on a stock auto trans w/ the Inline 6 without regearing?

Did you use wheel spacers?

Q: how many lips does a flower have A: 2:00

Hey man, I’m fitting the same wheels and tires on my MJ. I’ve got the IRO 3-link up front with a RC 4.5” lift. My question is, will I only have to trim my fenders and Wells to fit these properly? As far as your tires rubbing the lower control arms do they clear?

im liking those tires man what are they

You think I could fit 35s with a 4 1/2 inch lift

Those headlights are sweet! What are they?

Is the black along the side of the doors just paint ? Or are they attachments ?

Can it be a body lift or only suspension ?

What front bumper is that

do the hocky pucks just bounce around in there?

I hope you didn't keep that stock steering

your rear leafs are flat get some arcon them no rubbing

Whats that material on your rear panel??

What kind of lift are you running?

how wide are rims and tires?

You live in KY?

boy r ur leaf springs flat
