Sweet Jeep man! And what a steal! I just bought mine for way more than that and it's got cooling issues too, probably just a radiator flush and thermostat, doing that next week. Where'd you get the CherokeeForum.com sticker? I want one of those. Mine's got some dumb stickers on it that I'm pulling off, but it needs some good ones. BTW, I love the "stealership" reference, I'm gonna have to use that. I think the ones around here are buying up all the junked late model Cherokees to sell the parts as "remanufactured" for 10x what they're worth. Can't find any at the junk yards.

Ah, well that's good, was going to do that anyway! I'll just have to become a supporting member sooner than I thought. This forum was a big part of why I bought an XJ to begin with, and I've had one for all of three days now and I'm already obsessed!

Hey man how do you like your JCR front bumper?

I can get one for $350 and I like how it looks on your XJ. Any negatives about it?

Thanks and good looking XJ!
