1984 - 1997 Jeep Cherokee (XJ, 2WD and 4WD), 1984 - 1990 Jeep Wagoneer, 1986 - 1992 Jeep Comanche · Suspension Systems · Black Diamond®

These vehicles are equipped with solid axles front and rear. The front suspension is a coil spring / 4-link arrangement. The lift system consists of new coil springs for the front, longer axle-to-frame lower links to restore proper caster angle, add-a-leafs for the rear and Superide shocks all around. Superide replacement rear springs are offered for the Cherokee.

In 1984 Jeep introduced the downsized Cherokee / Wagoneer XJ to its line-up. The smaller pickup, introduced in 1986, is called the MJ. The new 4-link front suspension is conceptually the same design now used on the Jeep TJ. It consists of a solid front axle located by an upper and lower link on each side, a track bar, and coil springs. Traditional leaf springs positioned under the axle support the rear. These vehicles feature unibody construction, or a one-piece body and frame, as opposed to a separate body mounted on a rail type frame that is found on most trucks and SUVs.

Black Diamond®offers a complete 3" lift system. Front lift is achieved via replacement coil springs, while replacement lower links with polyurethane eye bushings correctly reposition the front axle in the wheel well and restore caster angle. Rear lift is achieved via full-length add-a-leafs that beef-up the notoriously weak factory springs. Replacement 2.5" rear lift springs are offered as an option for the XJ.

Black Diamond®also offers a buildable, adjustable XJ track bar that precisely locates the front axle, side-to-side, and allows more bind-free suspension travel. Other options include a steering stabilizer and AT Shock Absorbers.
