Ok so im 19 and landed in a sweet job making decent money so i decided to jump into my first rig build i picked up this 95 cherokee stock 4wd with 199,000 miles running strong

Got it home and dug into it some more found quite a bit of rust underneath the carpet so immediatley tore the old carpet out and went to work fixing the floors. first planned on putting new floor pans in but my dad gave me a good idea of fiberglassing all the rust spots which worked out great. Here's right after i stripped the interior.

swapped the suspesnions one at a time front to back as i pulled the lift kit off i cleaned it up and painted it. also figured while i was there i would replace anything that need it so i replace all the brake lines and all the brake parts. got extended brake lines from crown performance and painted all my suspension and calipers red.

Dont have her rollin down the road yet tried to bleed my brakes and found one of the steel lines from the master cylinder was bad so it just kept sucking in air. fixed that but with my job i get sent out of town often so i really only work on it on the weekends will have it on the street this weekend though bleed the brakes and gonna take it to a local muffler shop and get a full exhaust installed from the headers back. not sure what muffler to use any suggestions i like a deep throaty sound. im pretty new to this so im open for any suggestions, tips, comments, help.

For the loudest i'd go with a flowmaster 10 series, But a lot of people like the 40 and 44. but the best exhaust i ever heard, was a Glasspack than flowmaster with a o2 simulator after the glass pack and a 3" self resonating tip. with 2.5" piping all the way.

before i moved for my new job i picked up a 1977 ford f-250 custom with a dana 44 front and a dana 60 rear axle and a 351 Modified big block with a 4 speed granny low tranny and a 208 t-case planning on rebuilding all of them and installing them in the jeep with coilovers up front and leafs in the rear. not sure about a 3 or 4-link not sure what the difference or advantages definatley have my work and research ahead of me i want it done right.
