1999 Jeep Cherokee
I call it Black Phoenix, because its black (obviously) and because I rescued it from a junkyard in Phoenixville, PA, and rebuilt it. The name sounded appropriate. I ll add a before and an after pics.
4.0 with 130,000 on the clock
AW4 with tranny oil cooler
231 transfer case
Chrysler 8.25 3.55 gears
HP Dana 30 up front with 3.55 gears
So far my mods are the following...
Homemade front bumper with d ring tabs and hitch receiver.
Gas tank skid plate
Rear hitch recovered
Upgraded battery cables (2awg)
Cowl snorkel
Tranny oil cooler and temp gauge
E fan override switch
High idle switch
RK track bar
Hood lift struts
Offroad lights up front
Cargo window guards
Homemade discos
Upgraded alternator.
Maglite flashlight holder on seat.
784 injectors
ZJ v8 tie rod
Currently sitting on 3 inch RC lift and 31's on cragars. About to go up to 4.5 inch soon with 3 link soon.
Hope I win, since its my birthday month LoL.
Good luck to everyone else

Full Size spare.
Armor: Nates front non-winch bumper, Nates rear tire-carrier bumper with Rock-Hard Jerry can rack, JCR Stage 3 sliders, Napier Precision V2 Flares

Guys, please remember that when this is over I will REQUIRE that high resolution/good quality photos be sent to me to go in the Calendar. Please be prepared to do so. If not, I'll replace your picture in the calendar with a picture of a pink Teddy Bear with your name on it.
K, Go.

Sorry about this guys. I dropped the ball. Due to my mistake I'll leave the original 5 that I posted in the poll and add a 6th that I overlooked due to my old age.
Here's the new line up.
As always, please remember that when this is over I will REQUIRE that high resolution/good quality photos be sent to me to go in the Calendar. Please be prepared to do so. If not, I'll replace your picture in the calendar with a picture of a pink Teddy Bear with your name on it.
K, Go. (Again)
