So I know this guy who wants to trade me his 87 Cherokee for my 93 Cherokee.Mine is completely stock with 4.0 213000 auto 4x4 8.25 rear.His is a 87 Cherokee 4.5 Rusty Lift with 2 inch spacers and add a leafs in rear I believe with Rusty shocks 33inch wrangler mt 30%tread maybe 40.179000 4 cylinder jeep but conversioned to 4.0 5 speed Brand new clutch 4.88 Gear Dana 44 rear Custom made front bumper yakima roof rack and mount for jack on front.The Thing isn't street reading cause the gears but reliable?What should i Do my 93 is my dd

 

That's a hell of a perdickerment ur in the jeep adict in me says jump on it!!!
On the other hand if u don't have another DD u will be hating life if u did get it legal just on how much
Of a MPG drop u'll get!!! Good luck either way

 

I guess it would depend on what you want,for me the 93 would be a distant memory and fading fast,Is the trany in the 87 an ax-15?

 

yea that is quite the decision.... my first cherokee... before i sold it i had it set on 3.5" lift and gutted interior and a locked rear axle.... i then sold it for $350 to buy a diff project, which ended up being a pile of junk... frame rotted away a month later. and i have since regretted it every once in a while.......

so all i could say is what is more important.. a dd or a trail rig??? what fits your needs more?

 

Oh and it has Detriot True Trac Front and Spool in the Rear

 

Get it. You can pick up stock XJ's cheap all day long on Craigs List. Go for the 87 beast.
