So im getting my tax money back next week sometimearound thursday or friday, and ill have about $1500 to spend on the Jeep. I want to know what ya'll think i should get, i already have the following on it......

RC 4.5" short arm, 32x11.50 on soft 8's, and thats about it........oh and i have the C8.25 in the rear.

 

Gearing to bring the power band and mileage back.

Swap a HP30 in while your at it.

 

some type of locker, nice sounding exhaust, roof rack, rock bumpers

would say long arms but imo it needs other things before.

 

Yeah i was thinking about gears, 4.56's? I really want the JCR stage 4 front bumper too.

 

Winch? Tow hooks? Brush/Bull Guard? Injector upgrade. NP242 if you need the Full-Time 4WD.


You could probably do the 4.5L low buck simple stroker if you do a lot of the work yourself with that cash. Have roughly 260/320. Or do the poor mans and have 225/300.

 

Maybe a SOLID diff cover for the 30? they dont make one for the 8.25.....

 

ive been wanting to do an exhaust as well, ive heard some really nice sounding cherokees but ive never really found out what they've had on 'em, i know i could do a lot of searching to find out what sounds good. I dont want to put a flowmaster on mine, but i do want a high flow cat

 

air lockerssss

 

X2

 

but exhaust is pretty low on my list, id like to get some armor on it first

 

air lockers huh? hmmmmmmm

 

Or ox lockers......

 

Unless you get a steal,air locker is what youll get.Not air lockers. Rustys has a nice regearing kit with an arb air locker(no pump) for around 1100.I would say..... 4:10 or 4:56 regearing(front and rear) and go with an aussie and supererior axles in the dana30.Start by strengthening your weekest link.High pinion dana30s are a cheap upgrade to the low.

 

So if I have a 2001 with the 8.25 how do i know if its the 27 spline or 29?

 

Gears, rear lunchbox locker, sliders, diff armor, recovery.
