Default jeep Cherokee country modification

Hello all. I've had a 97 jeep Cherokee country for about 7monthes. I want to make it sound nice and loud. Also want to add fender flares, brush guard, and a light bar. I've got some idea's. But I need some advice. I don't have the money for a lift. So I want to add 30inch off road tires, a magniflow exhaust. Any advice is helpful thanks!

Welcome to CherokeeForum man! These might help you out!

In my opinion, If you can afford a light bar and a brush guard, you should be able to get a lift. Lots of options out there and you'll end up with a more capable albeit less beautiful XJ! Bumper can come later

^X2^ Your best bet is to start by reading here first for a few weeks to get a handle on things.

A brush guard isn't used on XJ's much at all, loud isn't a good thing all the time and gets old quickly. Take your time and go slow one thing at a time in the correct order.

Welcome to the board, glad to have you lots of people here with years of experience to help you.

Welcome to the circus! No need to waste your money on flashy things such as bumpers, light bars, or fender flares at first. Do some reading and figure out what your money would be most useful towards.

Just gonna say, if you want a nice sound from your XJ that you can make either loud or quiet on demand, get the BANKS MONSTER.

Windows down, it has a nice grumble. Windows up, it is almost like factory-quiet. No droning, more MPG & HP!
