My 01 sport build
 

Picked up my new 01 cherokee after someone hit and totalled my first one.
Found it on craiglist for $3100 after I contacted the seller and was waiting for him to get back into town he called and told me it needed a head gasket and he dropped the price to $1800. Decided to still go take a look at it since it only had 125k and looked to be in good shape. It was well worth the $1800 since the head gasket turned out to be a $10 thermostat.:cheers:

With the insurance check I got my RC 4.5 inch x series kit. Also needed to pick up a rearview mirror($15), an electric fan($65), new cat since it was from Ohio and didn't have one($80) and a clockspring which I found on ebay for $60 instead of the $260 the dealership wanted. Had the shop thats doing the inspection do the clockspring and the new cat/glasspack while it's there. Did spray some bedliner on the rockers and touched up the plastic bumpers.Fixed the window problem thanks to CF haha. More pics to come once I get it back home.

Suggestions are welcome.

Sye wouldn't be a bad idea. That thong looks clean! Glw it.

haha....clean thong! there is no such thing!:laughing:


OP, what size tires you plan on running?

Lol thanks to iPhone spell check.. It's worse when you say it to a girl in a text message.. thong? What..? Haha!

Gonna pick up an sye once I sell this drivers door I bought for my first cherokee about 3 hours before it got hit. lol Got some 31's off a friend for 45 bucks. 2 thornbirds and 2 super swampers.

Don't lift kits usually come with some rough country stickers? lol

Plans for the jeep once its back from inspection:
4.5 inch lift
somekind of bumper or brush guard
12V power outlet in the hatch area
lights mounted on stock roof rack
And last but not least this decal I found at Walmart that'll go on once the lift is done.

time to clean the ashtray haha

lol thanks forgot to add that.

cant wait to see it in the air :gunsmilie:

I planned on having the lift on 2 weeks ago but the first clockspring I got didn't work so I had to wait on a replacement. I should have my jeep back tomorrow and the lift on saturday....hopefully. lol

Went to go install my lift Yesterday and it turns out I need to buy new brake lines first:brickwall: Mine are gonna snap if I try turning them. It will be on this weekend though.

Well after 36 hours of working on it this weekend I finally have my lift on. Thing is now the jeep stopped running. Once I figure this out I'll have some more pics. Here's one though lol

Problem solved it was two blown fuses from leaving the battery hooked up while welding and the crank sensor was loose. popped my quick connect right off the bushing while flexing right after it started running again. haha Here's one picture more to come. Bumpers going on tomorrow and readjusting the control arms.
