Default 1st time jeep owner

Well, I'm a first time jeep owner. Before that, I was driving a 87 fsbronco. I could go on with what I had done to it but I'm sure no one cares for that but here is a picture of it[IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/Walter/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot.png[/IMG] Anyway, I dont really like jeeps except for the 2 door cherokees so thats what I ended up finding on craigslist. Its a bone stock 94 with a 4.0 auto. I dont have any pictures because I figure...its a stock cherokee and everyone know what it looks like

I had the cherokee for a couple days when on my way to work, a junkbox toyota car lost control in the snow and almost smashed me head on but I went around him(had to cross over to the opposite traffic lane-no one was there), as I went around him, I went into a drift, lost it and hit a tree head on. the hood, bumper, grill, radiator and fans needed to be replaced and both frame rails were bent pretty good. I pulled the frame at work the best I could and its much better but nowhere even close to perfect. Its just good enough to drive without being dangerous to anyone.

My original plan was to lift it a bit and run 33s but since the accident, there is no point. Probably closer to the end of 2011 Ill look for another 2door cherokee and do what I wanted to do with this one


I didn't say anything about myself...
My name is Conrad. Im 24 and Ive lived in Brooklyn my whole life up until about a year ago. Now Im in PA near Greentown/Newfoundland. I work at a import repair shop as a general mechanic around Clarks Summit.

Im not really sure what else to say about myself or the Jeep. So if you guys want to know anything just ask away.

Welcome. I love the Broncos. We can all appreciate something about a V8, solid axles and a frame.
