3.5-4.5" ZJ Lift Kit, Old Man Emu (1993-1998 Grand Cherokee)featuring Old Man Emu3.5-4.5" Grand Cherokee ZJ Lift Kit OME (Old Man Emu lift)Let's face it.. there are at least a hundred different lift kits out there for your Jeep. What separates one from another? Even when we flip thru magazines, they all look the same. It is the pictures of the springs, the shocks, all the nice brackets and bits... These pictures sure make those kits look nice. So how does one choose? Jeffrey Cifuentes gettin' flexy with it in his Rocky Road lifted Jeep. Underneath it all, underneath all the advertising, the flashy photos, the colorful vehicles, lies the foundation of any lift. The springs. All those lift kits you see all stacked up in the magazines and catalogs, they do have at least one thing in common... stiff riding springs. Crummy springs are the bane of the Jeep 4x4 world..... prevalent, horrible, tough to identify. Advertising budgets and flashy colors in pictures make great camoflage for them. They'll take your dream toy and turn it into something no one wants to ride in, and you curse every day you failed to research properly and wound up on those stiff big brand name springs. Best springs on the market for the Jeep ZJ. No debate...Spring manufacture is a fine art which very few companies take the time to engineer properly. The largest names in the business are guilty of it.... mass producing cheap springs that ride brutally stiff, but sell well because of the insane markup that most 4x4 shops get on those springs.... meaning they really push those big name kits. As a general rule, the less markup on a spring there is, the less likely you are to see it on your local 4x4 shop's shelves.... which is why you rarely see Old Man Emu components. They are the best quality parts, but not the most heavily advertised. At Rocky Road... we look beyond hype and really do take a different approach to our customer's Jeeps. A better one... At Rocky Road, we've developed a way to get you 3.5-4.5" of lift using only the highest quality Old Man Emu replacement springs, AND keeping the price extremely low due to our R&D process. The best doesn't always have to cost more. With our Old Man Emu system, you can have the very best ride at an incredible bargain price. Our kit uses Old Man Emu springs in the front for a full 3.5" lift (4.5" kits come with an additional 1" coil spacer). Now here's the best part.... our system moves your stock front springs to the rear for a full 3.5" of lift in back. There are two upsides to this bit of R&D genius. First... you buy two less springs so the kit price is lower allowing your more finds for those nice new tires and wheels. Second, The front springs carry a slightly higher spring rate than rears so you increase your payload capacity. The best news is that the front springs ride extremely well in back; far better than any replacement springs you're going to find from Rancho, BDS, ProComp, Skyjacker, and on and on.....

Rocky Road soft-ride long travel shocks. We feel we have designed the best riding shock we have found on the market today for moderate weight vehicles like our Jeeps. Other shocks are designed for vehicles thousands of lbs heavier (namely, pickup trucks), our engineered shocks are right on the money for a Jeep. Superbly valved for a great ride on road without being mushy offroad. OR, the ever-popular Rancho 9000XL Adjustable shocks are available as an upgrade option, which allow you to adjust and dial in your shocks for your favorite setting, or change it up depending on the driving and terrain you hit for the day. Also included in our suspension are front and rear track bar systems. The front features a fully adjustable replacement track bar and allows for ultra fine-tuning for front-end alignment purposes. The replaceable tie rod end is a very nice feature since the ends are available at any auto parts store. The factory track bar is one piece which makes it an expensive proposition to replace when (and the factory one always does) the tie rod end goes back. We do have kits for both left hand and right hand drive Jeeps! For the rear of your Jeep, we have a very easy to install track bar drop bracket. Our bracket offers mounting positions for both our 3.5" and 4.5" lifts. Your axle is precisely located at each mount point for the ultimate in ease of installation. Click the photo to the left for a larger image. Also included in our system is a transfer case drop kit. This is necessary for any lift over about 2" to help avoid purchasing custom driveshafts. While new driveshafts are never a bad idea when you start playing hard.... most folks cringe at the thought of having to spend an extra $700-1000 just for driveshafts when a simple drop kit such as ours will take care of the job just as well. You might ask about control arms. Many lifts have them... and boy don't those spiffy colors look pretty on some kits... The reality is that Jeep knew we'd be lifting these things and so built adjustability into the front end control arm mounitng system.Yes, with the stock control arms, you can have your vehicle set to 100% factory spec on alignment with the factory arms.
The other shops won't be happy to hear this since most money in suspension systems is made from pieces like the control arms (anything that is welded is a money maker for manufacturers) and not springs and shocks. The 3.5" lifts don't require control arms at all. For our 4.5" lifts, we do offer them as an option and they can help with fitting very large tires like 32-33's. You can view information
on our affordable selection of longer control arms Another great optional component for this suspension is the exclusive Rocky Road Control Arm Drop kit. for more information on how this system can help imrove ANY lifted Jeep, please click
