Default Project: 1998 cherokee "Name to come"

The start of my build came when my last. Xj was totaled. My new one is a 1998 classic 149,xxx automatic. STOCK all but the cd player.

It sat higher in the rear do to an add-a-leaf from the previous owner using it to pull a Boat or something like that. I couldn't stand the way it was setting so I had some 2 1/4 spacers from my last project.

Put those on so it sat almost level. Still didn't like it. So pulled those out about a week later and tossed under some 3" coil springs and adjustable control arms and quick discos(all but the control arms were from the previous Cherokee). This is how it sits now until I get my iron man track bar which should be here by the end of the week.

Done a few thing since the. Like blacked out marker lights and the "Angry eyes"

.

Still looking for some wheels I have some 33x12.50's waiting to be slapped on. The third pic was from the first time I took it out. I also got stuck. But that's what happens when you find the softest spot in the field with street tires.

Let me know what yall think. I'm also open to name ideas.

Ordered my track bar from iron man Andy and it should be getting here Thursday.then I'll be adding my 2 in spacers and shackles but found out last week I have a bent axle shaft on the passenger side. So that's on the top of the list.
