Those look pretty good sean. you guys welding them on? Not much room for bolts o_O
I would weld em.. My last set of silders had four bolts per mounting flange. And it felt, semi strong when you "rested" the jeep on them.
I Would like some round tube sliders for the MJ buddy. And maybe that bumper we spoke about.

Do you need a car right now? If you saved another $1k you could step into something a little newer with less miles. I got my '99 for $3600
I would go with a Cherokee not Grand. Just personal preference though.
I'm guessing you want 4x4?
Good deal on 2wd

This is a great deal too! 4wd as well (not listed, but you can see the TC shifter)

You can get a good one for around there. Originally I had a '93 with 220k (ran great) for $1700. Don't forget about the little costs as well...mostly DMV costs and smog.

Don't forget to look at other areas as well. St. George, Laughlin, Prescott, and inland cities of California.
