just got my 1st Cherokee!!!
Hello all, picked up a 2000 XJ a few days ago! 170k on the clock, patriot blue pearl. This is my second Jeep, I used to have a '74 CJ-5. I think I got a pretty good deal, 3900. so far I figured out why the A/C didn't work (compressor was unplugged!), fixed the window lockout switch so the p/w work from their respective doors (of course from info gleaned from this awesome site!), and I 've got a valve cover gasket, oil pan gasket, and rear main seal on the way...other than that and a few dents and scratches, she's perfect!

I'm probably gonna start off with a 3-3.5" lift, some 31's ( either goodyear MT/R, MT MtZ's, or maybe even some of those Treadrights...). I need to decide on a winch setup, and if I trust that D35 out back enough to throw in a locker of some kind...Jeez there's so much to think about I can't sleep at night!

haha yea once u do one thing u wanna do so much more,but if u have some money to spare u can go to the junk yard and pick up a ford 8.8 rear end outa a ranger,and theyre stronger than the d35,but 31's will be no problem with the d35

Thanks for the welcome everyone!
imehtoh, the poker run sounds like a great time, i'm hoping i can make it down, i guess i'll be in the stocker class for this one...
xjrev10, yeah its a d35 out back, has 35c cast into the upper left of the centersection. ugh yeah i know LP d30, any insight if a 3-3.5" lift will make for too much of an angle on the front driveshaft?
