well i sold it for $2500 on craigslist made good money on it, i only had about $850 bucks in it. i was in the market for a wrangler, but i came across a 1998 goverment style cherokee (all the basics lol crank windows am radio), but it does have all the factory skid plates..i had to have it love the style of the newer cherokee. here is what I have done so far, tinted the windows,all new u joints axle joints and drive shaft (Spicer u-joints)changed all fluids and put a 4.5 Zone lift on.(thanks to HILLS 4x4)

i did the 4.5 and im gonna run 32 11.50 because i don't wanna rub,and i don't want to trim just yet. If you have trimed fenders you shood be good with a 33, if not trimmed, i'd think about running a 32, look around on here at 4" lift and you can get a good idea what to do ,,,,,hope this helps..

Haha youre Jeeps a lot like mine. Different color and different lifts. Looks good!!
If you wanna see 4.5 on 31's you can take a look in my build thread. But i'm sure 32s is already been decided on by you. I do wish i wouldve regreared and gotten 35s...kinda..but not really. vVv
