Jeep CJ7 Lift Kits for 1976-1986 Wrangler

For decades, Jeep has been the most trusted automotive brand in off-roading. From their roots in making military vehicles during World War II up to the present day, there’s no auto manufacturer that is as well known for building off-roading vehicles. And while the Wrangler is the most well-known model that Jeep has produced, it was built on the shoulders of some awesome vehicles that came before it. Before there was the Wrangler, there was the CJ line, with the CJ7 running until 1986, when the Wrangler was introduced. Needless to say, the CJ7 is an iconic model in Jeep’s rich history, and a favorite among off-road enthusiasts. And even though it was discontinued many decades ago, it still more than holds its own when facing adverse terrain. As with all off-road vehicles, owners of this special truck are passionate about making it the best possible vehicle for dirt, mud, rocks, and any outdoor adventure. One of the best ways to improve the off-roading of the CJ7 is through a lift kit. We sell tons of different options for lift kits, so you can build your dream CJ7.

Options for Jeep CJ7 Lift Kits

As with all trucks, there are three basic lift kit options for the Jeep CJ7. The best and most popular is a suspension lift kit. As the name suggests, this type of upgrade increases the height of the suspension, and with it the body of the truck. That will give you a few extra inches of clearance when driving over obstacles and, perhaps more importantly, increases traction. A truck with a quality suspension lift kit will be more balanced and stable on uneven terrain, making it the ultimate addition for any passionate off-roader. Given the age of CJ7s, some people opt to just have their models be show cars. For those people, body lift kits and leveling lift kits exist for aesthetic purposes. Body lift kits lift the body of the Jeep without impacting the suspension, while leveling kits bring the front of the vehicle level with the rear.

What Types of Tires Do Jeep CJ7 Suspension Kits Accommodate?

When purchasing a lift kit for your truck, it’s important to consider the size of your vehicle’s tires, and the size of any Jeep CJ7 tires you’ll be purchasing in the future. Different lift kits can accommodate tires of different sizes, with larger kits usually allowing for larger tires. Our largest CJ7 lift kits can fit tires up to 38 inches.

Picking the Right Lift Kit for Your CJ7

Choosing the right lift kit for your Jeep is largely about deciding how much clearance you want. We offer a wide range of lift kits so you can choose the perfect size. Our smallest option for the CJ7 is a 0.75-inch leveling kit, while our largest is a 6.5-inch suspension lift kit. After picking the clearance size, you need to make sure the kit can accommodate your tire size. Then it’s all about picking the features, style, and price that’s right for you. Upgrading your CJ7’s suspension is an exciting task, and we’re here to help.
