Default what should i buy for?

i know this is a cherokee forum but......

this is my dd, should i get a 3in lift for this




or re skin the interior on my 1992 summer edition mustang




either way i look at it both will be about the same money. a 3in lift kit with aal, lca, and discos is gonna run around 450ish, and new leafs would be around 650ish new front and rear seat skins and misc interior parts would be around 500. i was also considering just doing a 2in bb since its my dd

my 2001 XJ will be my daily driver and we are putting a 3" RC lift on it next week. My vote is 3" lift on the XJ, but I too am biased!

I say drive the Mustang down the closest boat ramp and take your woman on a 450 dollar date.

lol i could lift the mustang and turn it into a donk with 26's..........yeah not gonna happen. mustang is getting lowered and i have heads,cam, intake awaiting on the shelf.

i would consider driving my mustang to a boat ramp with the top down and hop on boat and treat my wife to a steak dinner on the docks, but its cold where im at so i cant

wont be wheeling much, i went for the first time like 3 weeks ago to bundy hill with my buddies and rode with them, and was a good time.

i figured i would get everyones opinion and i know theres people out there that have dd jeeps and a tinker car on the side

Lift it! After wheelin' a couple times (if you are like me) you'll sell your car "toy" and build the XJ!
- Easier to drive the XJ fast on the roads, people don't cut off lifted Cherokees very often... they usually get out of your way. CRANK IT UP!

Mustang looks like an asphalt eating speed monster already... turn that cherokee in the exact opposite. the beast the feeds on the blood of rocks and dirt. that way you have toys for what ever mood you're in. scary fast or just scary.

caronaxtr- thats funny that you say that because it ran throught my head a couple times on selling my mustang....wierd....you must have sold a toy of yours for your jeep

Agent_Oragnge- mustang is all stock right now, stock 5.0 auto vert which is not fast
but i like a beast that feeds on the blood of rocks and dirt
