New & thinkin about a cherokee
Hey guy's im from NC and new to jeep's and am thinkin about buyin a 93 cherokee that a guy is sellin for $650. It has some things that need to be worked on but he says he has all the parts i need to do it. I am thinkin about doin some type of 5.5 long arm lift kit and tryin to run a 35" tire. I will be doin mostly trail ridin with it and drivin it on the road but its mostly for a play vehical. I would like the jeep to be able to flex out when goin over some big rocks and stuff. Anything that you guys could tell me about what i need to look into gettin would be great.
Thanks for the help,
Derek

I'd say def take it... as long as it runs. (And I welcome you to the world of being insanely obsessed with your jeep )
Rough Country has been good to me... look into their new 4.5" or 6.5" LA Kits. Comes with shocks and everything you need.

The windshield is cracked, needs new brakes and roators, driver door looks like someone hit a mail box. Im goin to drive it next week so ill no more then. But yeah i know what this is goin to turn into with me puttin everything into this haha. I had an old bronco with 38's that was alot of fun but im not allowed to drive it anymore. Does your rough country have good flex? That was the one i was leanin toward getting if i get the jeep. Also forgot full length axles will be goin under it.

I used to wheel a 3" rough country suspension and I gotta say for the price I was very pleased with the amount of flex I got.
