Another Jeep newbie
Hey y'all just got signed on for a 2001 grand cherokee limited v6 4x4. First time Jeep owner, long time Ford. I just thought I'd say hi, and make my first post. Hope to see y'all around. Anyone that could help me locate soe double black chrome/steel bumpers and siderails, it would be appreciated.

Welcome! First thing I will say, is you have an inline-6 (I6) not a V6 (just to give you a heads up). Are you looking for factory bumpers, or aftermarket?

I switched from a WJ to an XJ, and can tell you there isn't a whole lot of aftermarket support for the WJ's (although it is growing). ARB made a front bumper, and i'm pretty sure icelandoffroad does too. Those are the two I can think of at the moment.

Well, yeah I guess I have, I'm not going for hardcore offroad, but something along the lines of a daily driver that still gets off the beaten path.

I have ideas, but nothing solid yet... looking for a bully bar maybe a lift down the road, and throw some meatier tires with some suspension work underneath. For now, it's just the car that's going to get me around town and back and forth to work.
