Its now a 2001 Cherokee build. Coming back from the dead.
 
So I have this 00 Cherokee that I have had for a while now, and I am going to start doing work on it because it has given me no other choice, I have an engine out of a 97 Cherokee country that I am going to rebuild and change over to the coil. I am only looking to spend about 500 max on the rebuild as I will be doing it myself. Any suggestions on what kind of kits to use, or performance parts for the engine. I am also currently switching the entire interior over from the 97 country into my 00 sport.( the country has the wood trim) Including the dash, I had it line-x coated as well, with all the screws put back in there is no squeek.
Sooo yeah thats a big nothing burger, now its a 2001 build, anyone know how to change the title of my post header?
*EDIT*
Well it is 04/04/2024 and that Jeep didn't work out, life came fast and I am now working on a Jeep that I have had sitting for a long time. Posted pics below, Gonna Start working on the Jeep Hopefully getting it going by Winter.

T-Case with SYE exploded, in 2015, I've got the sads.
https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.che...6763941493.jpg
The hole that Appeared out of nowhere. You might be able to see the cracks on the case.
https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.che...db422cd3f5.jpg
Another angle that shows the cracks.
https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.che...e25c17dc07.jpg
The new/used T-Case I'm going to build NP231J. With a new SYE.
https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.che...19db7fe06e.jpg
I have like 3 Transmissions, this one was beat up a bit when the T case exploded. But still runs good just needs a couple new sensors. If you zoom into the back left side you will see the sensor that was smashed.
https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.che...237027ec93.jpg
I have 3 fuel tanks these are 2 of the spares.
https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.che...c21206cc86.jpg
Bwahahaha, yes the fake wood dash. Even though they peeled the bottom on accident after peeling off the tape. So I had my interior Line-X'd if you look at the side you might notice. Once its all installed you will never hear a squeaks.
https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.che...0cddc5bfaa.jpg
Showing the Line-X

Just random parts.
https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.che...497eda864d.jpg
More parts from a couple Jeeps I owned one blew up, the other was a parts rig I should have kept the body.
https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.che...8a3d7b59a6.jpg
My seats that I'm planning on getting re-upholstered, and having aftermarket heated seats added for those cold winters. I'll post what I get when I get them.
https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.che...d1109e5343.jpg
Not sure if this is a Dana 35 or 30-HP, how would I be abld to tell?

Not a Jeep, but I still rolled this baby 4 times. 1998 Suburban.

Another angle, I was riding with my guardian Angel that night.
https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.che...1ddfb37767.jpg
Okay back to Jeep Cherokee Parts that were Line-X'd.
https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.che...e436025d30.jpg
The plastic doesn't break when Line-X'd especially the tailgate plastic that always breaks.
https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.che...3c864c5422.jpg
More parts Line-X'd.
https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.che...6b3e476224.jpg
Ok done posting pics but yea I have like 2 spare Jeeps in Parts. All interior plastics was Line-X'd.

Well I finally got the door off after a lot of WD-40, PB, a hammer and some heat.
https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.che...b74572aa8d.jpg
The bolts are ruined. Tomorrow the rest of the doors come off then to the sand blaster and then Line-X shop to get painted.
