So fellas...
The 35s only lasted 2 days...
I had forgotten to take my ad off craigslist this weekend because I had decided to keep the xj....
Then I get a text asking if I wanted to trade xj for an xj....
Comes out to be a 98 2 door ax15 4x4 4.0 cherokee!!!! Score!!!!
It has a 3.5" rubicon express lift with sky jacker shocks, and 31s and a safari snorkel...
Not a big fan of the snorkel because I know it would tempt me to deep sea dive lol...well here's the pics....

Well since I've been trying to fix certain things like the obvious electric window regulators...which sucks because I went to 5 yards and all had about 9-11 96- 2 doors what a tease!!!!!
But I happen to pull a few stocks skids...engine and transfer case and will look for the zj skid for the gas tank...
So far it's been running flawlessly except it's due for a new clutch and got a low oil pressure issue which I think it's just the sending unit....

Yeah man...it was a deal not to refuse...
Been a busy week with the cherokee...did the valve cover gasket, got some manual door regulators, installed one side because my passenger side panel broke while removal...smh...and also picked up those vent windows for the rear....
Direct swap...loving it for that reason...
Valve cover gasket...
Got lucky these didn't break flush...had 3 of them break like this some even closer...
Quarter vent windows...will get installed pics later...
Mock up....

Ahhh. Sooo jealous of those door panels. I want them so bad but it's a lot harder finder four panels versus two.
Interested to find out your thoughts on that LSD driving wise. I'm a little iffy about rocking two auto lockers with a stick and an LSD is better than an open front...
