ZJ build "Gracie"
Been looking around at lifts and saving up to be able to buy everything i wanted and i finally got it. About 8 months ago i sold my 1988 Jeep Cherokee pioneer with a 4.5" RC lift and more. Now that i look back i wish i didn't sell it but i sold it to a good guy. The i bought a 96 jeep ZJ with the 5.2L. Since i bought it ive replaced:
Starter
battery
radiator
fuel pump
fuel filter
full set of brakes
front CV joint and axel shafts
PCV valve
IAC valve
and more
