Well since something got accomplished I figured i'll make a thread now..
2000 Jeep cherokee. Bought for $3k USD I'm putting some parts on it before I ship it to Antigua just to save shipping costs on most of the parts. Here we go..

The day I bought it.








Painted the hood, bumper and trim
New headliner
Back half of the 3" RC lift (DAMN UPS!!)
new window regulator




Finished lift
Hitch
Diff guard











Plenty more stuff to come... Just figured id start now for some input.... Hope it's worthy of you pro jeepers some day.

 

Nice XJ man how do you like those tires they look good on there

 

man that thing is CLEEAAANNNNNN! Nice XJ

 

The tires work great in Florida. Im anxious to see what they are capable of in rocks when I ship it to Antigua in July.

 

Great looking truck man, that's awesome!

Notice any steering vibration with that 3" lift? I know usually you dont' get it until over 3.5", but the newer models are apparently more sensitive to lifts...

 

It doesn't ride as nice as it did. It rides more like a truck as opposed like a lexus like it used to. But what do you expect. No vibrations though it rides like a dream.

 

It's almost the day!! I got offical word from customs It will be released and in my custody on Tues. Shipping it from FL to Antigua wasn't as bad as they made it seem. I also got a camera for my birthday So many pics will follow after I get it out for the first time. It's like the same feeling as picking your buddy up from jail lol

 

Finally got my truck back in my possesion. Man did that thing get dirty on the boat coming over here jeez! Someone from Tropical shipping or Antiguan customs cut out my cd player which SUCKS!! I hate theives, but what can ya do. I'll take better pictures tomorrow in the daylight.

 

Sorry to hear about your loss man, some people are just that disrespectful in this world. Could've been worse though! Good luck with the build.

 

<Made a bank for some poser flex shots lol. All the fun parts I didn't feel like getting out to take pictures....>

 

That rig looks good. I would be having the shipping company replace the radio or discount my shipping.

 

Good looking rig,sorry about your radio.

 

Shipping company signed the paper that the head unit was in there... Antiguan customs marked that the head unit was in there during inspection... The broker who got it out of customs for me either stole it or just sucks at his job and didn't double check the customs paperwork... Either way I can't take the government run customs to court in a corrupt government country... I'm not taking the broker to court because not only would it take about 2 years to get a court date, I would have to take off work for atleast a day and deal with sitting in a court room all day.... Between the hassle of paperwork/court and losing money or vacation time from work it's not worth it..

I just bought an 80 dollar dual head unit from walmart.com and it got here yesterday.. Now I just gotta figure out what wires go to what speakers because they cut the wires behind the harness.... Gotta love fkin theives...

I contimplated sitting outside customs in the afternoon and following all the employees home and stealing their radios at night.. But two negatives dont make a positive.. cept in math and theivery...

 

Man that sucks sorry to hear about that radio. But your jeep looks great.

See if this link helps you on the 5th page down it has a run down of what color wires go where I used it when i put my head unit in i thought i would pass it along

LOL awesome... I installed it the other day and completely forgot you posted this... Stoner, lol... Wasn't too difficult though, used a AA battery to find the speakers and a powermeter for the power cables... Thanks for giving that to me though.
