Default starting my jeep build

I bought this jeep last year from a used car dealer for $1200.00....it's a 1992 Cherokee Laredo 4x4 in almost perfect condition. It shows 180k miles on the odometer, but the speedo doesnt work all of the time, so I figure it's more like 200k. It's got a 4.0 and automatic tranny...motor runs strong and tranny shift good. the only thing thats wrong with it is it needs some front end work. it wobbles real bad about 45 mph. I'm pretty sure it needs wheel bearings. the only thing I have done to it is put 31 x 10.50 tires on it. It's still stock suspension right now, but I want to put a lift on it after I get the front end fixed.

hey! my suspension is stock too, and i'm looking to add 31's...do yours rub any. i have an RC kit w/2in shakles and spaceres on the way. i'm guessing that should clear 31's no prob(?). what do you think?

the only time mine rubs is if I turn the wheel all of the way either direction or if I pull a trailer. other than that, I have no rubbing problems
