Whatsup everybody, Just got a 93 jeep cherokee with 230,000 on it for 1k. Came with 3 in RC lift kit and 31' tires. The car is absolutely spotless. Ive been searching around here in Gainesville and this is the cleanest car ive ever seen. No rust at all on the body or undercarriage.....probably in the spots i cant see but so far havent found any. Bought it from a old fireman who had quite a few cars and didnt need this anymore. Anyways, im in college so this thread will probably go a little slow since money is tight but i got big plans for this bad boy, tons of u-pull-its here with plenty of cherokees. So here it is! First day, once i brought it home.....lifted up and got to work on the lift

gatorbait

Out with the old and in comes the new

gatorbait

Decided to try out the new lift...... Seemed to do some work hahaha....next comes new tint and intake? possibly later changing to a snorkel....got to catch up with some of your guys threads on the home-made ones since im in the hole

Ender

Nice XJ! Did you lift the rear as well, or it was already lifted? I feel you on the money issue, mine has been very slow going, can't seem to get the funds together for a lift yet...

LeRoy90laredo

good steal!
what are you plans for it other than a snorkel?

gatorbait

Thanks guys.....and nope not yet Im installing the back lift in a few days after exams...eh... This week I should get my tint in... so that will probably be soonest mod. Then I want to add some cooler hand grips, like in the wranglers. I plan on going to the U-PULL-IT this weekend and finding some doors so I can take an angle grinder to it and make my own chop doors with a reliable locking mechanism for around 30$ (U-pull is cheap here!!!). Also looking for a full exhaust from the pull it. I plan on rhino lining from the door handles down if its cheap enough..... Hopefully this should all be done within a couple weeks, then in long run I plan on adding lockers and swapping internals so I can unleash some more power haha
