Hey from Denver!
I thought I'd stop in and introduce myself. I'm Robert. I'm 35, live in Denver, and work as an Engineer for the local utility.
I recently bought a 1990 Cherokee. It has 261k miles and 3 wheels in the grave. I picked it up cheap in mid October and have put some work into bringing it back. I hope to start my own build thread, eventually, to show off some of the work, but to date I have: Replaced the rear suspension (leaf springs, bushings, shocks and bump stops), straightened and reinforced the lower control arm mounts (axle side), installed new control arms and swaybar hardware, and am in the middle of an engine rebuild (block is currently at AMS getting a 0.040 overbore).
I've been all over the western US on motorcycle (I run a motorcycle forum in my spare time: http://www.xjrider.com) and decided I'd like to bring my family along, so I'm hoping to continue those adventures in the Cherokee. More, much more, to come.
