Be careful with the rears they are not so forgiving.

I sure did hack em up pretty badly and im going to make some of these for my jeep so those should cover my hack job

Shane, I just read through the entire tread. At first I thought you were crazy for taking off the stripes, but it really looks good. I think your doing a fantastic job on this build and making this Cherokee your own! great build dude!

Thankyou verry much im glad you like my build thread. I didn't really want to take my stripes off because I doubt I will ever se another one with the stripes but I just couldn't stand the pealing clear any more. another tough thing for me to do was cut my fenders, I really didn't want to cut into them but after my tires ate up my fenders back on sunday I kinda felt like I had to. Thanks again for the complement.

Hello its been a while since I posted in this thread, I will be starting up my build again next month. I will be getting a rear axle for my xj with 4.88 gears and a detroit auto locker so ofter that I will have to regear the front so while i'm in there I plan to get a spartan locker and upgraded shfts for it.
