Hi, name's Logan,live in Sacramento,Ca.

I used to be a hardcore toyota guy until my 4runner spun a rod bearing, leaving me with just $1000 cash to find a new vehicle.

I traded $1000 and one of my pop's rifles for a 91 Cherokee Laredo.It runs great, just hit 200k, and came with some 31x7" General Mud Terrains that howl like crazy on the pavement.It needs a headliner replacement, a new oil pressure sending unit, and I have a bit of an exhaust rattle.These will keep me busy for a bit this winter.

Plans are to lift it 4.5"s, trim a bit and run 33's or just run 32's.Not sure yet.A pair of jcr bumpers,sliders, and transfer case skid.

For now,I'll wheel it as is.

6.5" Rusty's Long Arm
Currie Built Ford 9 inch Detroit locker 4.56
Dana 30 HP Detriot Tru-Trac 4.56
37" Wrangler MTR's

On my xj?

The don't rub at all when in the city, rub a little offroad.

The Yellow xj only rubbed with the wheel completely turned, and that was on the lower control arm.

yup it's stock.

The only reason the tires don't rub real bad is cause they're only 7" wide.

if they're 31x10.50 they're rub really bad on a stock xj.
