Looking for the ultimate in great performing suspensions for your Cherokee?

 

Look no further than Old Man Emu!

 

With OME, ride quality improves greatly over stock and the plush ride will turn you off from lessor springs or cheap AAL (Add A Leaf) lifts from the moment you try them.  The Old Man Emu springs will fit 30" tires on your XJ and with our taller rear shackles and front spacers, will fit 31" tires.

 

And how does this lift feel? Let's just say those guys that throw their wallets at Range Rover's are hating it comparison.  Old Man Emu suspensions cost a bit more, but its a lift that will last for many years and is world reknowned as THE best ride available, the spring rate is a very comfortable 148lbs per spring.  Old Man Emu suspension components are perfect for those who want ride quality over 'show' quality.

 

If you're one that researches around on mailing lists and bulletin boards before purchasing, you'll notice one theme over and over.  Other lifts on the market are stiff, flatten out quickly, or just don't measure up to their claims.  A similar recurring theme is that you will NEVER see Old Man Emu listed in these Jeep owner's frustrated postings.  Old Man Emu does more than bend a set of spring to a taller height, there's alot of engineering that goes into each spring and the overall design of the system itself.

 

 CHEROKEE XJ OME LIFT KIT

Find our various Old Man Emu components and kit offerings to the right.  Kits range from the basics... OME springs and shocks, to Budget systems with the top OME springs and more economical RRO shocks, to the full-blown DELUXE suspension upgrade which is all OME parts, along with adjustable Control Arms and Track Bar, the full works!!  This Deluxe system will completely transform the ride quality and driving experience on and offroad for your Jeep AND the kit combines to a discount of close to $200 over buying these pieces individually!

 

 CHEROKEE XJ OME SPRINGS

With Old Man Emu, your ride quality improves immensely over stock and the plush ride will turn you off from lessor springs sold by more well-known companies with huge advertising budgets or cheap stiff coil lifts from the moment you try them.  OME suspensions are widely regarded as the best engineered suspension on the market for any vehicle.  Not necessarily the best choice for those looking to go extreme with super size tires and huge lifts.  The OME system is a sensible lift height designed for maximum highway comfort and excellent offroadability.  If you are looking for more, we recommend our Jeep Cherokee XJ 4" and 5" lift kits

 

OME suspensions are available only for the Cherokee, not for Comanche.  If you're looking for extreme height and huge tires, this lift may not be for you.  However, if you're looking for a sensible increase in ride height and substantially better on and offroad ride quality, then look no further.

 

Among the many great benefits of the OME suspensions, the spring rate is tailored to your vehicle and taste, one spring does not fit all, and OME understands this.  This is why there is a choice of springs for guys running an 8 cyl engine up front, heavy winch bar, safari rack, oversized spare tire, etc.  Customize your suspension and get it right the first time!

 

OME also builds their shocks specific to each vehicle. Its not a shock designed for a full size pickup truck that cross-references to your vehicle as well.  It is built for the specific weight and suspension geometry of your vehicle for a comfortable ride on and offroad.  As with the springs, various rates of dampening are also available with the OME shocks.
