Default First time jeep owner from the JDM side.
So the name is Mike G. I'm new to the 4wd jeep thing. I came from many years behind the wheel of Hondas and Acuras. I got a 99 Cherokee sport and plan on building a daily driven trail rig/ ultimate mtn bike rig. Hope to be help full on here and to learn as much as possible.Oh and I'm from NH.
THANKS,
Mike G.

Depends on your year and your xj. Some guys go crazy pulling their hair out. Others never have a major or minir issue. Im in the ladder category

I had a 98 Integra and those were still made in japan, hence the J and the beginning of the Vin.
