Thanks.

Update on the MR2 HID headlights. Decided I can't do those beacuse I need highs and lows. I don't want to go with bi-xenon kits because of the reliability issues they have been having. I may have to come up with a dual projector per-side type thing out of homemade housing, we will see.

Radio still working flawlessly, deffinitly would recommend this radio, seems flawlessly with the look of the intiorers of the newer Jeeps.

Thats it for now!

Update:

So I was thinking about it today at work, I want to get the angel eyes, the biggest reason I want the NorcalMR2 projectors. Can I put a regular halogen bulb in there?

Also, my headliner is starting to sag. I was thinking of doing a custom headliner made of a whole bunch of Offshore game fish flags found on offshore fishing boats. (I'll see if i can put something together on paint.)

Saw a cherokee today with a 3" lift and 31" tires. It looked HAWT!

Cannot wait to get it lifted! Tires are 230 bucks a pop, but I really want the ATZ's!

Was looking at IRO and had a few questions.

Has anyone had any experience with there lift kits? Any good?

Still going to stick with the 3" kit though.

Hey guys, it's been a while. Nothings really happaned. The Mickey Thompsons ATZ pluses wore out (i loved those tires). Bought Firestone Destination LE's. Tires not to bad, haven't gotten stuck with them yet, been on the beach in north carolina with them no problems.

Lift should be ordered within the month.
-Im having ai bit of difficulty deciding between 3 lifts.
a. IRO 3"
b. RC 3" series II
c. Rustys 3" full leaf pack

I want to stay under 500 bucks, cause i want to get some of the Mamba machined faced rims too. which one would you get?

ive heard that the IRO long arm lift is really good quality. figure all of their stuff is just as good. A buddy of mine that drives super crazy, ***** to the walls whos on a RK lift says he knows someone who has the IRO LA lift Who goes even harder than him and it holds up. When i upgrade from SA and drop brackets, Im going to go with the IRO LA because i know how much abuse my buddy puts his rig through and if it can stand up to more abuse than he can dish out, then it'll survive my driving easily.

Im going with the IRO 3" AAL set-up. My rear leafs are fine no real sagging. I plan on eventually putting in 2" pucks in the front and shackles in the rear with IRO adujstible track bar, HD tie-rod, and their HD LCA and UCA's, this should net me a total of 5 or so inches when phase two is complete.

-lift should be ordered within the month from IRO (anyone know their shipping times?)
-Mamba Gunmetal Machined faced rims with the black insets will be ordered the same time. Not getting new tires cause I just got some over the summer. Im really excited to finally be getting on the lifted bandwagon and look different then every cherokee out there, esp. with the rims im getting.

Took about 6 business days for IRO to send out my kit. Once shipped took 3 days to get to me. They sent it Fedex Sat Delivery. I ordered a lot of hardware though so you will probably get your parts faster.

Oh man, I want that head unit. Is that the bluetooth model? KDC-945, I think?

Looking forward to your progress on the build.

Its not the bluetooth one, but it is SAT radio ready. I had a Pioneer before this one and I would take this HU over the pioneer any day, my ipod is plugged in the back, cause i wanted a seemless factory look in the dash.

Im super excited for my lift though!
