4.0
AW4 231
D30 8.25
3.55's
My parents bought a 2wd Jeep Cherokee brand new in 1994. Drove it forever then when I turned 14 I started fixing it up for my first car. Typical maintenance stuff and all then once I was 16 I went through the cool teenager phase of stuff to do to it. Then I got on CF and changed my mind a little...


4wd conversion, lift, bumpers, tires bleh
As it is now.


94 converted 4wd Sport
4.0 with 188K
Aw4 swapped in for swap from a 93
NP 231 for swap bolted to that tranny with 170K D30 from a 95
Roughy 4.5" of lift
Efan on a switch with the write up I wrote
JB conversions SYE
Dual front driveshafts
FST t case linkage
Doorless mod
Custom toolbox in back with all my junk in it
L&L winch bumper with recently added prerunner bars
Rugged ridge 8.5K winch
Aux tranny cooler
CB with PA
Police siren
LED dash lights
D30 Chromos with HD alloy U joints
Stock D30 760 joint spares
15x8 Pro Comp D-window Steelies
33x10.5 KM2's
Magnaflow high flow cat
Flowmaster 40 with turn down at axle
JCR steering spacer
Chevy front brake lines
YJ Skyjacker rear line

Have Clayton long arms waiting to go on and a 29 spline 8.25 to build.

Future mods:
Install long arms
Waiting on my low pro relo brackets...
Lock front
Sliders Skids-not factory
Wheel

1991
base model XJ 2 door
4.0L high output, AX15, NP231. D30 non vac disco front/D35 rear (for now..) still running 3.07 ratios, but have a D30 with 3.73's, I have a 99 xj front axle I'll be using the shafts out of so it will have the larger Ujoints in the 3.73 axle, currently looking for a explorer 8.8 for the rear.


Sense this was a base model, it was VERY basic. But came with vynal flooring rather the carpet, which is nice. I have swapped in reclining driver/passenger seats, rare vented side windows, tilt steering collum, ran speaker wires to the rear of the xj. Running 31x10.5 MT's on steelie rims, SS braided clutch line replaced the junk factory plastic one.
2" shackles in the rear, front and rear fenders are cut/folded. removed rear sway bar. Pioneer head unit, MTX 5.25 door speakers, Rockford fosgate prime 6x9 rear speakers, JL 500/1 amp pushing a rockford fosgate punch Z 10" in sealed box.

Parts I have but have not installed yet, new RE LCA's, RE 4.5 coils, but I think I will be trading them for some 3" coils.

217k miles and running strong as ever.

Didn't think we were going to have 5 entries this month lol. Good group of rigs here though. Going fast is something pretty cool and kinda new that's catching on, but going anywhere is more fun

Gotta give it to 94xj. I love the race rig, especially the paint, but the history decided my vote. Fixing up an old car that your parents bought new and giving it a second life is just plain American

Wills got my vote. The back story on his rig beats all. And it's the nicest/most built rig in the lineup.
