First time Jeep owner...

Hey ya'll....

I just went and bought my first 1997 Jeep grand Cherokee limited... it black, leather interior, sunroof, V8 with a 5.2.... Will post picture soon....

The jeep is in really good condition, just plan on add a few of my touches

Just a few things I plan on adding:

3-4" lift kit
fender flares
front bumper with winch
rear bumper with tire mount
new stereo

Like I said I'm new to the jeep world... any suggest is greatly appreciated!!! This thing has pretty much become my new "tinker-toy" and I can't wait to start getting my hands dirty!

Think of your first Jeep as the Gateway Jeep. You'll hunger for more and more, and pay for it until it breaks you... Wait!?! That sounds like all addictions.

Good luck and welcome to the CF from PA.

Congratulations on your purchase, I'd love a V8, but the gas prices in the uk would need a second mortgage! Welcome to the site!
