i had a 1990xj the i put a rc 4.5 short arm lift on with moabs. i loved it. it was loads of fun until i cracked the flex plate. i replaced it and had nothing but problems. i sold it 6 months ago and have been waiting to pick up a newer xj.
i found this 2000 cherokee on craigslist. it has 110k on the 4.0. it has a lp dana 30, but it has a Chrysler 8.25. its completely stock. i happy with it so far.
i took it for a little spin in the woods today. did fine for a jeep with no lift.
future plans are
rc long arm lift
sye and drive shaft
bumpers
winch
fog light
33s
and eventually some arb lockers
here's the pics i already took off the side moldings









heres some of the old xj

 

that thing looks clean, cleaner than my 2000!

 

good start...do work!!!

 

i love the green, should look great lifted

 

thats funny cause i wish it was blue lol. but i couldnt be with out a jeep any longer

 

good luck, looks clean

 

thats funny me, esteem, and CFarr44 all have steel blue xj's and you wish yours was blue

 

i hope you kept those moab rims?, that is true about the blue

 

na the moabs went with the jeep. i sold it not running for 1800

 

not bad, i really wish i had moabs

 

yea i want another set but i dont wanna run spacers to have them sit out far enough.
but i have a few little updates. i put my cb in and made and antenna mount. i put in my headunit and sub and amp. and mounted my mag light
and mounted my hellas

 

looks good man how much u pay for it if u dont mind me asking?

 

$4200 for my 2000 and only $350 for my 1990

 

not bad really cant w8 to see what u have in mined for it

 

i wish i could have got it cheaper but for the condition it was worth it. and the plans now are just waiting on the funds lol
