Default not new just havnt been around

several months ago my 87 XJ took a dive on me after i put a lift on it, after exhausting all my options and spending mass amounts of money on it, i decided to get rid of it. got a good deal on a chevy K5 blazer and have been driving it back and forth to work. also in this time i found out im going to be a dad and our SON is due in february.

fast forword to now and my neighbor is planning on moving to england and is selling me his cherokee for a very nice price. also since i helped him build it, i also know whats wrong with it.

1997 XJ
4.0 HO
AX15
dana 30 front, 4.88 gears, and a trac loc
dana 35 rear, 4.88 gears, detroit, super 35 kit
7-9 inches of mix matched lift (will be lowering it)
35" BFG mud
winch

most of the add-ons look like he shopped from the rustys catalog. roof rack, t-case drop, front pre-runner bumper, swing out rear, beefed up steering.

Well I had a couple things wrong on my info. It has 4.56 gears not 4.88 gears. It also a true trac locker in the front. He gave me his receipt folder, there's about a grand into the front axle and over 3 grand in the rear axle. Picked it up today, mounted one of my winches on it and got about way through the on board air install.
