Once again, a question about our 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo…
Last time I changed the oil and rotated the tires, I had a HELL of a time getting the wheels off the ground. I jacked that dang car as high as my floor jack would go and the wheels hardly cleared the ground. I did this in my garage so the floor is relatively flat and even.
Wondering if bad shocks could do this, or if possible the upper control arms (which I just learned about here on ETCG). It wasn’t an isolated problem either, it was all 4 tires.
Appreciate any thoughts and discussion!

It sounds like normal travel of the suspension with lifting a vehicle, and you might need a different floor jack with a higher lift capability.
Does the Jeep have tires larger than shipped from the factory?
When I jack up my Camaro the center of the wheel is about four (4) inches below the bottom of the body.
