Default hello from Indian trail, NC

Hey yall my name is Michael. I'm located in Indian trail, NC This is my 1st jeep ever. Just picked up this from an old lady who was the 2nd owner. Very clean inside and out. Needs a good detail. It was over heated on the interstate lower hose busted. Blown head gasket. Has been sitting for two years. Plans are lift, wheels, tires, exhaust, hids and tint. It will be my daily/trail rig. Not into mudding.

Welcome, from Eastern NC.

Nice jeep. Will need a battery strap before you drive over any speed bumps.

Good looking one, should be much reliable daily driver. Welcome!

Check out this thread for some inspiration on lift/wheel/tire set up:
https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f59/xj...up-thread-260/
I would go for 3.5" and 31 or 4.5" RC lift with 31" A/T
A good link to compare AT tires at 4WOL Tires
good choices are Maxxis MA-S2, Bridgestone A/T Revo2 or Blizzak DM's, and BFG Rugged Terrain T/A or BAJA T/A.
