SURCOS are the cheapest I found out there. Just beware you will be drilling out the 1/8 inch rivets right after the warranty expires in 90 days and replacing them with 3/16. I did that to all four corners inside and out to make it solid, otherwise you live with the rack falling apart.

 

Today's projects:

-took off the radio bezel to try to solve my fog light issue. I was looking for signs that the toggle switch melted. Found nothing. While I was in there, I removed the antiquated hands free cell phone system holder.
-Poked around the fuse/relay box in the engine compartment to see if my fogs have a bad fuse. Nope. It's either a loose wire or burnt out. I need to get a voltmeter to check.
-Took a look for signs of a cracked cylinder head (I'm a paranoid '01 owner and just overheated a week and a half ago). Oil looks clean.
-Finally got around to putting my Rough Country decal on my back windshield. I think it looks sharp.

 

it suck that gas prices are going up, but nice jeep. i wish they made the cummings engine for the cherokee would be sick, i think they did in europe.

 

Thanks!

Yeah. At least I'm gainfully employed this time around, unlike 2 years ago when gas was $4.00/gal.

And I've never been a fan of diesel engines. I've never driven one, so I guess I have no room to judge, but you could always drop one in your XJ and see how it works if you got some extra money.

 

I wouldn't be saying that too soon, Its $4.00 where im at now, and its probably going to go up more too. I think its nice to still see real Cherokee Chiefs with the lettering below the door.

Heres mine, Not a Chief but a Laredo.


Hey for all Chief owners I noticed a 1985 Jeep Cherokee Chief on Back To The Future Part I
Its a the begining of the movie, Its a 2 door.

Ah gas is $3.38 where I'm at (as of my last fill up). But I like your Laredo. Do you have an older windshield with the chrome edge?

 

yeah, Its a 1991. It orginaly looked like this http://carphotos.cardomain.com/ride_...0001_large.jpg But swaped everything on it with a 2001 Cherokee.

 

Some glamour shots from the trail earlier today...

 

Looks good i like how your keeping it clean

 

Recently took the XJ for some fishing in North Carolina...

 

Where at in NC were you?
and nice jeep btw

 

Oregon Inlet just south of Nags Head. The pictures are a few months old, just forgot to post them... I went right after that hurricane ran through, so the weather was great (beaches were a little thin, as you can see by the water running right up to where I was parked)

 

Had an extra strand of lights, so I threw it on the roof basket. Now I need to craft up something to light them up...
