After owning a couple V8 zj's over the years, I bought my first XJ last Friday. So after doing some searching I decided to join the forum. Lots of killer rigs here. Really gives me lots of ideas on what to do with mine.


Details: 1999 Cherokee Classic just over 137,000 miles. Currently features a 3 1/2" Rubicon express lift, K&N cold air intake, Rhino lined rock sliders, and diamond plate steel on lower body. 31 10.50 15 BFG AT KO's on stock rims. I also got a hitch kit, a high lift handy man jack and a set of 5 Rugged Ridge black steel wheels thrown in on the deal. The interior is super clean. The 4.0 is much more stout than what I thought it would be but it needs a long tube header and an exhaust system. Plans are to do a full refresh on everything, add a roof rack, smittybilt front and rear bumper with a winch and add some light bars.

I ran 33x12.50's on stock rims only problem is I didnt get full lock turn out of my jeep as the tire would rub my lower control arms and coil springs at full flex. Besides that one problem ran my jeep like that for a year and a half.
