Will lifting a Jeep make it ride smoother?

[mcperson2k]

I was just curious. My friend is getting a 5" Lift and 33' tires. I was curious if because of the new suspension, the car would take normal everyday potholes better. My stock Jeep Cherokee feels awful every time I go over one, so I was wondering if having a lift system would make it almost non existent feeling?

it all depend on the lift you go with i have a rough country 4.5 lift on mine and it ride way beter then it did stock my firend has a 4 inch rustys off road lift and his rides the same as it did stock it also depends on the tires to i am running 33s bfg muds on mine he has 31s super swamper ltb which have a stronger stiffer sidewall then the bfgs do there are some lifts that will make it ride really stiff but most manufactuers have done away with hard springs

If anyone has ever riden in a smooth Jeep? Didn't think so! If you want a smooth ride, get a Civic!

And no, the lift will certainly not make it smoother.
