Talking 98 2dr slowly but surely

1998 2door Cherokee 5speed

Bought/Traded 2 guns and $700 from a friend, who bought it from a girl who ran it off the road and bent the driver side control arm, and all it needed was new rear shocks, easy fixes, other than that super clean

the rear shocks were rusty and broke off so i ripped out the carpet and drilled bigger holes and bought some 8gauge steel bolts,nuts, and washers and bolted em through the floor
