Default First Jeep, Thoughts?

I recently purchased a Jeep Cherokee, has Rusty's 8 inch long arm lift kit. Rear lockers. 4X4. It sits on 33s. Its my first Jeep. Paid 2,600 bucks.



Please give me you thoughts and what i should do to it.

Not a bad looking jeep but doesn't look like 8" to me. I'm running 38s on 7" and yes my fenders are cut but not that much.
