new guy
hey guys... so a little about me, Im 21, from montana (stationed in louisiana) almost done with my four years in the army... and ive been building this jeep with my dad since i got in. Its kinda hard because i only have had time to go home and work on it twice and have yet to drive it. Not that i havent been jeeping before (i used to have a jeep "wagoneer" with a 4 inch lift and 32s) just not in mine yet.
Alright so about the jeep, bought a almost stock 99' cherokee (came with the skidplates and a reciever hitch) with 20,000 miles on it for 4500 bucks when i first went to iraq. after i did 12 months i got leave and had ordered a Dana 44, riddler covers, ARB locker, 4.10 gears, and disk brakes for the 44... the Iron Rock Offroad 6.5" Critical path LA kit with skyjacker shocks, 4.10 gears, riddler cover, a T&T truss for the Dana 30, 5 superswamper 34" LTBS on black pro-comp Xtreme alloy rims, terralow for the np231 and SYE, and alot of stereo equipment (ha with a little cutting and molding, i fit a double din pioneer touch screen deck with gps and all in there- turned out great!). We put that all in there and put the axles together but never got to order the driveshafts in time on my first leave.
Since then ive order the arb snorkel, jcr prerunner bumper (with receiver for the winch set up i also ordered), Jcr stage 3 sliders, Jcr rear tire carrier bumper, some hella lights, a weston winch, rustys roll bar, tom woods driveshafts , some headlight gaurds and stuff, and a borla exhaust. Looking forward to leave this summer to go finish it and drive it down here.
first pic is stock, next few are as it is now.. ha sorry they are so close but it was cold outside and i didnt feel like pushing it out of the garage Ha i know all that pretty red paint on the bottom is gonna get scratch off but for now it looks pretty awsome.
