Um nothing just yet, got these today!!!! ha, but i do know it rubs when you get full locked turn. also it will rub on flex on the back bumper, also just a little in the front bumper. It can be trimmed easily though. Not much to trim. Ill let ya know if I trim.

hahah ohhh ok. If you have different rims with offset, you wont get any rub on turns just some on fenders unless you trim. And thanks on the advice on exhaust this thing is louuudd. How much does that cost?

Nice looking Cherokee! Congrats on the work.

Check Summit Racing, they have the Dynomax catback which is quiter than a flowmaster but sounds alot better than a stock setup. There was a $75 rebate on this kit.. for a total expense of about $50 after all said and done.
