wk2 lift 2011 grand cherokee

Any plans for a lift for the new 2011 grand cherokee?

That would certainly provide some challenges. It already has a computer controlled air lift system built-in. Provides 0 to 4.1" of lift.

according to jeep thats only the overland with quadratrack lift suspension

It comes standard on the Overland, but it's an option available to both the Laredo X and Limited 4x4 with the Off-Road Adventure Group II package.

i guess it resets every time you start so big tires wouldnt be an option for there standard lift


that why i asked if they would make an after market one

It also lowers approx. one inch for ease of entry and 1/2" above certain speeds, so larger tires are a problem.
In addition it has soft sound batts, in the inner fender that are only about 1" away from the tire and the 4 wheel Independent Suspension presents additional issues.
It will be a major engineering project to make it work properly and how many Grand buyers are looking for a lift kit???
You have to evaluate the potential product demand vs the potential design costs to see if it is a viable project.

I'm thinking maybe (hopefully) there will be a way to "lock" the air lift in place at 4" by reprogramming the ECM to always stay in air lift mode.

2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee Off-Road Edition
To get ready for the off-road, go big. Case in point: the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee Off-Road Edition.

The 5.7-liter V8-powered silver Jeep Grand Cherokee boasts a suspension lifted with coil springs to make way for 33-inch BFG Mud-Terrain tires. The exterior is prepped for off-road battle courtesy of Mopar skid plates, rock rails and tow hooks. The interior has been upfitted with the Mopar bright/rubber pedal kit and sill guards.
