Why are you guys hassling this dude for wanting to mod his jeep? He's got the same passion for it we do, he just doesn't have a 4wd. He bought a jeep and he's in love, he just wants suggestions on making it look the part. We don't know if down the road he's doing a 4wd conversion or something.
Do whatever you want man! It's a jeep thing, not a civic thing.

Wow people. Just because its not 4wd capable its not a real Cherokee is that it? Kinda like how wrangler owners say Cherokees aren't real jeeps, isn't there a thread floating around here full of people. Who here had actually wheeled a 2wd XJ, I have and I must say it was intense where I got it to go in 2wd.
Anyway back on topic. Do you have a picture of what you XJ looks like currently, might give us a better idea of what would look good.

if u want an more agressive look, put youre mother in law on the hood.
i dont really care how my jeep's looks.
sure it's not an mean car, still people dont like the cherokee as the wranglers.
so our cherokee's are not wanted by most 4x4 drivers, especialy at the land rover side. still our cherokee's surprices most other 4x4 drivers if it comes to off-roading or snow driving.
so the jeep Cherokee is in my opinion the most mean machine ever

In his defense, he's standing up for himself. But EVERYONE needs to keep the flaming to.themselves. We already got a thread full of retards with no respect for themselves, others or this site.

Alright, I've read this long enough. Trust us, you will eventually want to try to have fun with this Jeep. So, get wary of tow hooks front n rear. A good Hi-lift mounted for recovery. Then add a couple Aux lights. As for lift, maybe a 3" with some 31x10.50 ATs. Now we have the basics for recovery, traction, lighting covered while adding "The Look" to your ride.

Just get the normal stuff.
Bumpers
Roof rack
snorkle
flares
6.5 lift
33x12.5 goodyear kevlars
some 15x10 rims with 3.75 of back spacing (this is whats going to make it look good)
It dose not matter if its 4x4, I could prob make it in 2wd through 95% of what everyone on this site considers "extreme wheeling"

A front bumper will always add more aggression depending on the style. check out l&l fabrication, they have some nice prices, i really like their winch bumper
