-Better handling dynamics
-50/50 weight distribution
-less weight
-faster
-more fuel efficient
-cant catch the front "pumpkin" on crap
-more reliable
-easier to maintain
-funner, and just better

Plus I don't like hyrdolocking my engine if I drive through a 2 inch puddle. Nor do I like having to worry about losing my front bumper on a curb, or worry about trucks headlights blinding me, or not being able to park in an open field on july 4 because the entry is a steep divot and I would bottom out, or the fact that I slam my head into whatever t bones me, or that i have 7 inches of crumple zone on the highway, or that I will get decapitated if i rear end a semi at 30 mph. Or the fact that if a semi rear ends me he will go through half my car at just 30 mph or the fact that if a dumpster truck hits me head on his wheel would go over my hood and crush me or the fact that I can't go through 6 inches of snow or the fact that if I rear end someone at 2 mph my car is totaled, or the fact that I don't have half the visibilty as I normally would in an XJ..... Or the fact that it has no torque, sounds awful, is slow, ugly, and I don't know what I would do with it.

I love you guys and I LOVE CHEROKEEEES !!

I can post a pic... I only have one youtube vid up of my jeep, I have changed the exhaust setup completely since though.... But here's my jeep(had to do this at night, you know it looks weird when you are taking exhaust video for youtube!) I liked it at first, but it souned ricey in upper rpm band, so I got larger piping and cat delete. BUT MY NEW SETUP, it sounds like I hit VTEC at 3,000 rpm.... feels dramtically stronger from 2800-3300 and sounds high pitched... I DONT KNOW WHY !

I doubt your doing any real "mudding" in your stock two wheel drive jeep. But have fun with it. Just don't expect help from the great members of the forum when you bash everyone in your fifth post

My whole jeep was covered in mud, the engine bay was covered in mud, I almost got stuck(my friend with his 4wd xj was there, I really wanted 4wd, but I say this so I don't feel as bad).... I love Cherokees, I was jk about 2wd>4wd. I just don't want to be persecuted for buying a 2wd cherokee.....
