So some of you may remember my old jeep build thread. https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f46/99...r-build-87115/ Well I got this jeep back from my little sister. It is in bone stock form again and it getting ready to under go a bigger and badder build than last time. Get ready guys cause build starts now...

Step 1 was to remove the nerf bars off it

Step 2 well y'all gotta wait to see

This is a hint to next thing on the list...

I needed a new grinder so planned to get one from work soon (supervisor at Home Depot). Well helping out in hardware tonight we stumbled on some grinders that went from $100 to $24.03!! Yeah I got the last one and some goodies to go with it.

man your previous build was very nice.. do you have the link for the extended brake lines? i would love to lift my wifes truck and im sure theyll come handy..

Kenne21

Thanks man I should've never ended my last build but I did it to help out family. Same reason I got this jeep back actually lol. My little sister got my much nicer WJ and I got this back but I am very happy with the trade cause I missed having an XJ. These are the ones I used. I loved mine. They were very well made and strong as crap. http://www.quadratec.com/products/72406_813X_PG.htm

Okay so I'm working on two phases of my build at once right now. This is what has been done so far this morning, then I got side track cleaning my garage cause I'm OCD and it was a mess. Just like the first post I won't say what I'm doing you have to wait to see, but here is some of what went on.

Front bumper assembly and fender flares removed...that is all haha

So here is some more progress on the jeep...oh I'm waiting on a few goodies to come in so in a week or two be ready for something cool...hint it's not a lift kit

Got some 32x11.50R15 for the jeep today. Getting new wheels and putting them on sometime this week. I also am switching colors on the jeep to Forest Green but not gonna rattle can it.

Got a few goodies for the jeep! Oh yeah we mounted them in the garage haha

Few more pics of them on

Well I got the fenders trimmed now so my tires don't rub when driving around town. Still a little rub offroad when the suspension flexs though. But that's to be expected with 32s and no lift.

Kenne21

Well I decided to stay tan not green. Almost done with paint. I have to do bedliner on bottom and touch up the hood and roof. Oh and the fun part...door jambs. Pretty happy with the way it came out overall though. Starting bumper build too.

Kenne21

Well I got paint wrapped up today I think. I also started tacking the winch bumper together but time to get cleaned up for work. Might have more tomorrow night.

Thanks for showing how you taped her up. I will do this in the future.

Kenne21

Oh no problem man. Sanding her down and taping everything off is the worst part of painting I think. I'm happy to be done with paint and onto building some stuff.

I figured it would be, gotta just set my mind to doing it haha. Did you rattle can it? I'm excited to watch this build and gain some insperation.
