these things are plenty capable in stock form, so don't be afraid to have fun with it now as well.. I'm glad I did, as it's a great way to get to know your rig and what she can do.

Haha my 94xj is still bone stock. I've had it for 6 years now and it's my first vehicle. I've been wanting/planning/saving for roughly 3 years now and next month I got big plans coming together. But until then it's still my DD/mall crawler/ beach runner/ snow plower (when we get snow) so on and so forth. I have not had an obstacle yet it hasn't been able to handle. Good luck on you're build.

Best post I've read on this forum in awhile.

If you want to take it offroad, find a club to go with that will teach you how to drive offroad, turns out I wasn't closing the best of lines before but every time we go out I'm getting better and people keep telling in me "I can't believe you ccan do that" I've got 3-4" of lift on 31s, I go through more stuff than the tj/yj guys on 33s

To clarify, when I stated that I'm doing this, I was indicating the direction I would take it. No rush to get there, though. It thrills me every time I climb in.. I am a huge fan of my cherokee. I. am. cooler. than every non-xj driver on the road.

I enjoy the deliberation of modification decisions, be it in respect to current vehicle or past. My plans change as I research/discover new things which also influences a slow-to-act attitude towards purchases.

Except for the mileage.. yup. I avg 15-16 and I'd say I drive very rationally. How do people get these 17-18 mpg xjs WITH lifts/oversize tires??

Is it normal for morris4x4 to take a while with processing orders? I bought the cv ds april 10, and it shows up on my bank account that it went through, but still no tracking number.
