hey everybody . this is my first post to the forum. and gotta say it feels good to finaly post. well i bought an 89 cherokee pioneer from a close friends dad. when i got it it was bone stock, had no shocks on it, no engine in it, and practically bald tires. the body was pretty dirty and had some paintball stains that were a pain to get out. i bought this jeep unsure of how long it would take to get it up and running. but i was excited since ive always wanted a 4x4. it took over all about 8 weeks to get the motor installed, and get all the nessecary parts in. it ran. there are some things about the motor that need to be fixed but she gets me were i need to go. i was unsure of what kind of look i wanted to go with. but im aiming for all black. i have black rockcrawler steel rims that have mounted on them 33''x13.5'' TSL superswampers that i am yet to put on. i am lacking the lift. im looking to go for a 4.5'' rough country suspension lift. hoping this will be enough to clear the swampers. anyways i will post more info on my jeep later . all feeback welcome
