i currently have a 98 laredo v6 that i've had a few years & i love it. it has 213k on dash but wen i bought it the guy said engine had around 50k, seeing how it had 173k on dash then i just guessd around 80k now. its still very cleaner then any engine i've seen thus far on a car ---JEEP-- of its age. I had planned on "restoring" it making sure no rust wud come thru anywhere. but now im thinkn i wana XJ 2do instead because its getting difficult trying 2 replace this driver door cheap anyway, im paying 700bucks for a dam door but anyway,,, i wana EVENTUALLY, not @one time but hopefully within the next 2years, replace all the pieces/parts under the car..drivetrain & all.. i dont know too much (@all) bout that stuff but i catch on to most stuff pretty fast..SOOO this i what i wud like some help on....i want new parts for functionability(<<not a word)) & look rite?? so i kno there are some parts where i could just use some elbow grease n sand & use this stuff to get that nice new car look and keep it rust free?? http://www.tptools.com/p/1658,233_Rubberized-Undercoating.html

i found this stuff for the underbody too

idk if this stuff is meant 2b used on jeeps but i found this catalog for this company b4 so,,???

ALSO,, what parts shud i do 1st?? i dont have much on budget but i still wud like some clear direction on what 2do 1st. i want a 3in lift & 2in adjustable coil over spacers, cold air intake, new exhaust tires etc. but i dont want to waste time/effort goin back & forth..[ex: if i get lift kit,mite as well do brakes/rotors rite?{stainless steel extensions for 4.5in kit rite} shud i just work on 1 side of car @1 time?Left/Right?per each tire? etc it sounds like much but i like 2 get stuff done & the ppl on THIS forum seem 2 as well..i appreciate the upcoming feedback

your thinkin way to hard...
its a jeep, cheap parts.
door should be had at junkyard for about 75$....
complete pads for front brakes-20$
rotors-60$
if you want 3" of lift get some coils for 200$ and throw them on, you dont need anything else except shocks. stock brakelines will be fine up to about 5" of lift.
as far as the 2" adjustable spacers.... your gonna need long arms, lengthened driveshafts, oh man... it gets alot more expensive unless you want it to ride and handle like ***.
my opinion, dont go above 3.5" of lift if you dont plan on seriously using it offroad, because it gets expensive fast.
with 3.5" of lift you should be able to run 33x12.50x15 unless you unhook the swaybar offroad, then you want to stick with 31's
