MI Rig Build
Hey guys figured I'd post my rig build (or rebuild i should say) here feels a little closer to home lol
My plans are to restore and upgrade alot of things here is what i'm starting with
93 Cherokee Country
4.0 HO
AW4
NP231
D30,C8.25-3.73 or so i was told
6.5in. lift
35x12.5x15
Heres the plan
tear out carpets and patch floors
trim rear wheel wells up to the inner wheel well
new front fenders
upgrading to grand cherokee 5.7l alternator
all new wheel bearings ball joints and tie rods
new gas tank
regear to 4.10
possibly anoter two inches of lift
Heres what i started with
got the new steel down on the floors didn't take any pics though had some nasty welds I'm a beginner trying to teach myself with this build
if theres anyone in the Grand rapids are that would be willing to do some teaching i would compensate with beer

Greengoblin can help you with all things Cherokee. I'm in his club and he has always been ready to help. I live in Holland so if you need an extra wrench turner I'd be willing to help.
