Hi, I'm about to sell my Ford Ranger to pick up a white 1997 Jeep Cherokee, I've been into them for awhile but I have another project but the other day I seen a green cherokee lifted roof rack, just looked awesome so I decided to find one. Seen the white one the other day at a slum dealership, test drove it today and hopefully tomorrow I pick it up, all stock for the most part but once I get it I will clean it up and post pictures. Thanks

Welcome! Best of luck with getting the Cherokee. They are really fun rigs to modify and go wherever you want with!

Yep, like I said I've always been interested in them, I never get into anything 4x4 or anything lifted, or any kind of missing trip, but a light lifted cherokee on some tires just makes me want to grab the camping gear and me and the family hit the road and go get lost. I don't hard to explain.

It is? I'm not too informed on what's good or bad I guess.

Regarding the newer body style (97-01), A lot of people consider 97-99 as good years. Other people also consider 91-95 as good years but a lot of people swear by 87-90 (renix) too.

It's actually all about personal preference.
