KILLAKEE
1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo

This is my 1999 Jeep WJ. Originally I was in the market for a JKU, but I came across this Jeep for a steal. It had been wrecked pretty bad in the front, took me a few months to get it back into 100% driving condition. From there I started the modifications. Currently I'm in the process of building my axles and transfer case, which specs will be listed below. I'm also trying to get familiar with the software my work purchased for me to design and print the blueprints for my custom builds which includes: bumpers, sliders, roof rack, brackets, etc. For now, it's a daily driver and used for camping, hunting, fishing, and hauling the kids around town, with the occasional trail here and there when I can sneak away.

I'll get down to it.
