I want to turn my 94 automatic cherokee into a drifting beast;
I know I need to change the transmission, axles and tires but what else do I do and how do I go about doing it?
Any suggestions are good suggestions!!

Why do you need to change your transmission and axles? I'd imagine you'd want to lower it then so you have a lower center of gravity, but I'd imagine drifting an suv to be a pretty rediculous and perilous journey.

well lowering it is a given but if im going to drift it, it should be with a manual transmission. the the axles, tires and shocks need to be replaced so that I have stronger, slightly longer and a more durable drift.

Drifting with a Cherokee? Why not a school bus?

If any suggestions are good suggestion...

If you want to drift don't do it in a damn high centered box SUV. If you want to drift buy a ****ing Honda.

Not a good choice since 99% of them are front wheel drive. Unless an s2000 or NSX

Well I wouldnt drift a Cherokee unless I wanted to roll it... But have you ever heard of team petty cash?

Look them up on YouTube and read into there XJ it's a racer. Different strokes for different folks I guess.

...very good troll? there is a great build where the guy lowered his xj anyone remember the name?

oh wait. it was project troll (irony)

Drifting a cherokee is definitely a rush, I've done it with the 95 I had which was an automatic and unless your extremely skilled I don't recommend it. Not saying that I'm skilled just got lucky.

I kinda drifted mine in a sand bar once. Idk if it counts as such but it was bomb. Could Probly hydroplane in good rain haha

yeah dirt drifting is really fun. It's also really easy to hit the gas around a corner and break the tires loose and "drift" after it rains
but I wouldnt recommend doing any of this. its a good way to catch your jeep on fire ask me how I know

First thing you do is sell the xj and buy a rice burner.

If you are serious, get a 2wd. convert the front to IFS, lower it, run the stiffest springs imaginable or coilover, stiff sway bars, remove all the weight possible, and swap a LSD 8.8 rear with 4.11s. wide offset with street slicks.
Oh and don't roll it.

ive hydroplaned going around a corner once. scariest thing ever. luckily no one was around and no one hurt, except my jeep broke two transmission lines. there's 0 control in hydroplaning. so don't do that.

How/why did your jeep catch on fire? Iv seen the pics
