Default Got my first car which happens to be an XJ!

Haha i'm so excited! I've wanted a jeep since i can't remember when!
Bought her off a gentleman in missouri for $4000 !
I have about $500 left to modify it! What should i do first?
Here's a picture; just got a new windshield (old one was cracked) for about $200.
2000 Cherokee Sport 4.0L i6

What kind of trails and how much is your budget ? My dd is on 4.5 short arm aal kit with 33s stock 3.55 gears .... Pretty cheap so far but I have found put the aal has sagged bad and my short arm is not enough flex for me ... All depends on what u have to spend and what all u wanna do exactly
