I lifted the Ford Explorer I had before this Jeep and it felt like it was going to tip over on me. It was only a 2" lift and some 32s but it really changed its handling.
what year explorer and body or suspension lift?
if suspension what brand?
I had a '98 Ranger ,first year with the true IFS, and when I did the 4" super lift it used the OE Torsion bars
problem was they were soft
they had to be preloaded ,they make a tool to turn them a little so when you put them in they are under a load
this fixed the "tippy" feeling
fixed it to the point of almost to stiff ,added over an inch of lift
I also did an add-a-leaf to the rear to make up for the saggy rear end
on our KJ we did the OME med. coils
and with 255/70 AT's on OE wheels
it drives and handles like a stock ,show room new, KJ
The quality of suspension will dictate how well it handles
