Default 00 Cherokee sport..first build!!


MORE PICS ON LAST POST
hey first post on this site! First Cherokee build!! i will have pics here soon but here goes! any suggestions feel free.

2000 jeep cherokee sport 4wd (midnight blue)
was stock when i got it

3" rough country lift kit with shocks(but just put 2inch blocks instead of add a leaf in rear for now)

Cragar soft 8 16inch rims with TreadWright Guard dog tires 265/75/16( 32.2 tire)

adding 2 inch pucks in front and add a leaf in back to make it a 5inch lift next week probably..and bushwacker cut out fender flares..

also cutting and custom fitting the front and rear corner trim pieces.

I am trying to make a reliable winter ride for the wife if it gets bad/// a fun and effective mud/trailer

Thats it for now!! any suggestions please feel free to comment

Thanks!
Tee Jay

Welcome to the addition. Other then I would use shackles in the rear looks like a good start to me. Looking forward to seeing them picks.

Welcome to the forum and the beginning of the end of your bank account haha. IMO, blocks suck. I watched a buddy spin his rear axle in a brand new dodge because of blocks. Shackles will just be a better overall way to lift instead of the blocks. just my 2cents though. looking forward to these pics...
