Project 3rd times a charm
 

alright guys and girls after being on this site and browsing for hours i finally decided to make my own. now Ive have 2 cherokees prior to this a 86 2 door and a 99 4 door. well i was browsing around in tha local classifieds here in swva and found a sweet deal. 90 model 2 door 4.0 5 speed for 800 bucks. went and picked it up for 750. all it needed was a paint job and a rear main seal. so i brought it to tha house and started workin on it. i decided to take it for a spin and then out of no where comes an ol woman in a brand new 2500 silverado and plows into me and my ol lady. :brickwall: so after 4 months fighting with the insurance place i finally get it back. so im open to all suggestions and tips on fixing it back. im 20 years old and taking welding in college so thankfully i can weld half way decent but like i said all tips are helpful. i was also told when i bought it that it has ford front and rear axles but i have no clue. so ill get some pics up and maybe some can help me out on that. thanks for lookin and hopefully tellin me what ya think!:icon_lol:

Yeah, post pics of the differentials and we should be able to identify them. There is an image somewhere around the site with the different pictures of the most popular axles people put under their XJ's.

sooo i wanna lift it but not so sure yet... whats tha deal with tha bb kit?? ive seen a bunch of ppl talk about it but i want to know if its worth the time and money?? any help would be great...

Make sure your unitbody is straight before you waste any time and money on it,I would just find a new one and use some of your settlement to find another one. You did get a settlement right begin it wasn't your fault right.

i drove around since i was 16 with broken windshields and i finally got a new one and wow what a difference XD

thanks rich. i should be picking it up in a few days. state farm isnt in a very big hurry to give me some money haha. um im new to all this so i guess as long as the frame isnt hurt then its good to go right???

yea man my girlfriends head did that am im pretty sure she dont wanna look at it everytime she gets in it haha. i know tha guy at tha local glass place so hopefully he can cut me a deal:thumbup1:
