Looks like you had some pizza cutter LTB's on there when you first did the lift. What happened to those?

Looks good man, its so nice to have access to a hoist.

And for the rockers, just make sure you take the time to prep it right so you don't have to do it again. and i'm very happy with how the duplicolor came out, good texture and color and if I ever need to touch it up it will be easy.

Nice 8 point man. Did you get alot of meat? Here in NJ the deer are like dogs - Ha! In PA though, they are pretty big.

Anyway, How many Jeep cherokees do you have? I saw 4 on the first page of this thread. Do you have 4?! Or, are they other people's?

Nice, losing all the plastic was one of the best and cost effective mods I did. Are youu going to cut and fold rears and trim fronts? If so I have some tips on doing so. Also on replacing/relocating washer fluid resivior, horns, and vac canister(ball). All to engine compartment.
