94 Retired Fire Cherokee
So the story behind this vehicle is I was working in my uncles auction and this happened to be the vehicle i got to drive through the sales line. I had seen lots of lifted cherokees out there and they look awesome. As the bidding was going i was raising my hand out the window bidding on it. I ended up buying it for 2400 dollars. It belonged to a local fire department, was well taken care of, and has lots of extras. It came with the an orange rechargeable off the battery spot light, a battery charger with a 110 plug on the bumper, and when you plug it in it also has a block heater, for cold winters.
This is when i first got it
This light was installed it when i got it, these run about $350 dollars. It charges off the car battery and is super bright. Great for spot lighting.
2" Rough country lift kit, bought it for $100 bucks and installed myself.
31x10.5x15 Maxxis Big Horns. Bought them for $400 off craigslist like new. Rims are les schwab specials, 15x8.
Custom Light bar, 2x1.5 steel tube, welded caps in end and bolted to mounting plates from the fire department lights. I got the lights from a truck stop. They are about 4 inch glass sealed beams with a rubber housing, you can beat the hell out of them and they are bright. Brighter than kc's in my opinion. I have 60 bucks into the whole thing. And only about 3 hours. They are ran from the battery, to 2 seperate relays under the hood. anyways here they are...
I finally got tired of the blank holes in the doors, the white stripes are reflective tape that the fire department had on there. I put in an Oregon Ducks O on each side. I think it fits perfectly.
And last but not least i installed 2 4' whips on each side of the light bar. looks sick in my opinion.
Winch bumper and winch are soon to come. Will be updating.
Thanks for looking

Sweet build, the color and the side-striping really makes that box look unique. And, you're right, the Oregon "O" fits perfect.
I'll be following along with your progress...

Bought this bumper today for $200.
My plans are a 2" hitch receiver, not sure where its going to go yet suggestions would be very helpful.
Also 2 Lights like my light bar on top of my rig currently. just a different mounting system. rubber inset mounts.
