Post up your 84-86 Cherokees and provide some stats. I have a soft spot for these years... even if everybody else thinks they're junk. 
1986 Pioneer
2.8L, TF904, NP207, Dana 30, 29 spline 8.25 with No Slip locker, 3" lift, 31x10.5x15, and other misc junk.

jbs - Awesome, man! I'll have to reference your build for when I do my v8 swap. I'm also amused that your '86 is the same color with the same pinstripe as my 2 door '88.
tcolt - Looks like a good start! What are your plans for it?
Gotta be some more 84-86 XJs lurking around...

Here's mine:



- 1986 Cherokee Laredo
- 2.8 v6, TF904, NP228, Dana 30/35
- 4.5" RC X-Series lift w/ full leaf packs
- 29x9.5 Goodyear Wrangler Territory's (bought the tires right before I decided to lift it
)
- Homemade rear bumper/air tank
- Sony CD/iPod deck, Exile marine water-resistant amplifier (mounted behind right rear panel, nicely hidden away so nobody breaks into my Jeep AGAIN), Kicker speakers front and back
That's pretty much it.. Unfortunately, she has been sitting out at my farm since October while I've been in school. The poor little v6 has some serious crankcase pressure problems. At last, I have a few day break between exams; so tomorrow I'll be picking it up and driving it to my parents' where I can do a quick rebuild. Hopefully make er last a year 'til I have money to swap something in... I'm thinking something that will bolt up to the trans like a GM HT 3.4 crate engine or a Buick 3.8... maybe a nice supercharged Buick 3.8
