2. 32-or-33” tires (brand+width not decided thinkin general grabber AT2s) Not a bad choice, but I woudl recommend some Bridgestone Dueler A/Ts or Dayton Timberline A/T's
5. ARB bullbar - Maybe check out JCROffroad and other vendors from this site and NAXJA.
6. SmittyBuilt winch (idk if it will install in ARB’s bulbar……..)
7. Rain gutter mount roof rack (warrior products or kargo master) - For a DD this will drop mileage.
8. Optima battery (red top) - I would recommend a stinger battery.
9. Cherry bomb glasspack (idk what size Cherokee takes) - They do not last very long and do not sound very good. I would go with a magnaflow/bullet performance or dynomax ultraflo muffler.
10. Some E3 spark plugs
11. Bullet hole magnets! - Find someone to actually shoot it for you, then you will have a story to tell.
15. Maybe a snorkel…… - Not really necessary unless you intend to go thru water crossings frequently.
16. Loooonnnnggg way down the road a locker - Especially with a lift, and the fact that 8.25s do not have a carrier break, an aussie locker or equivalent costs under 300$, well worth the money.. this should be higher on your list.
17. Again, looooonnnnnnnngggg way down the road whole body new paint or rhino liner - Why not rhino line your rockers/lower body panels. And maybe your flares.
18. And once again, loooonnnnnnnnngggggg loooooonnnnnnggg way down the road is a diesel conversion done by JeffDanielsJeeps (Cummins 4BT) - As nice and exciting as this would be, a GM GenIV LQ/LS motor would probably perform better in an XJ. Would be easier to have inspected.

hope u like it! this will be a slower paced build, as money doesnt come in that fast but it will be done!! changes are highly likely
keep in mind this jeep has bout 209k on it so maybe that diesel conversion will be sooner then expected.... hopefully not! (money wise)

Dont forget the pink neon and your rainbow sticker. heck, you could even paint it rattlecan grey primer and leave it like that. GAFL!!

Save for a lift and tires before anything then spend money on the little stuff. I have a the 4.5" Rubicon Express with full leafs and 32" Bfgoodrich MT KM2 on it and it looks and feels nice.
