thanks. Yeah, i was skeptical on how they would come out and everything since it semed like no one had run them on there cherokee yet... and i hadnt seen pictures other than retail ones, and we all know how that goes i just decided to go with it, and it turned out great...wayyyyyy better looking than thos big bulky cut out ones, and cheaper too!

the 4.0 hates bosch plugs. Champion Coppers seem to work best for pre '99 XJs

I had Bosch and they were ok. I since upgraded to Champion Double Platinum and I love 'em. Still use the Bosch wires, cap and rotor and no problems with any of them.

so i went out wheeling for a bit today, got some good shots. nothing too serious just some trail and mud... this thing has some SERIOUS flexability



Plenty of room for being all the way tucked at just about full flex with 33's and the new flares!



springs un seated




Almost all traveled out, spring and bump stop look about the same. gonna have to add a inch puck or so




And to give you an idea of how high the hood is and the jeep being level, im 6 foot tall


poser shot!


Cant wait to get this thing to rausch soon

-Chuck

Looks good Chuck!! I would definitely add more bump stop like you mentioned to avoid any coil bind. Just looked again and is your sway bar still connected?!?!? That is some crazy flex!!!
