SYE: Slip yoke eliminator. Fixed driveshaft yoke on the rear output of
your transfer case. Allows use of a CV (constant velocity or double
cardan) rear drive shaft to reduce vibrations and increase strength. Not
strictly required on a 3" Cherokee lift.

LCA: Lower control arms. They connect your front axle to the underside
of the body. Longer replacements highly recommended on a 3" lift. They
correct caster of front wheels for proper steering response.

A 3" lift will let you fit 31x10.50 tires with no fender cutting.

For a 3" lift you want the following:

2 front coil springs
2 rear leaf spring packs (with u-bolts)
2 lower control arms
2 disconnectable front sway bar links
4 longer shocks
brake line extensions

Longer track bar (or track bar relocation bracket) possibly required to
keep front axle centered.

Most manufacturers offer a cheaper version that has add-a-leaf (AAL)
instead of full rear leaf packs. The really cheap kits use very short
leafs that will ruin your stock leaf packs pretty quick. Longer leafs
are better, but still cause your stock springs to sag over time. For
your five year old vehicle, consider a kit with full replacement leaf packs.

Many manufacturers: Superlift, BDS, Skyjacker, Black Diamond, Teraflex,
Rough Country, Rubicon Express, ... Search web for best prices.
