Potentially new
So I don't own a cherokee but its ok, cause I really like them and have come here to see the jeepers plead their case.
I owned a tj this time last year...it was my very first car at age 16.

I had to sell it due to me having it in the shot at least once a month...I called it a heep.
Then I moved on to a 4x2 Xterra.

Bought it stock and modded it with a 1.5" lift, AT's, Wheels, CB, and light bar

What I like about the cherokee is that it comes stock with a Solid Axle in the front and back...which means stock with no sway bars the front and back will flex like my picture above^^ right?
Im stuck between Xterra's, Cherokee's, and 4runners...but I don't know if 4runners come stock with a solid axle up front?
I know to SAS a xterra it runs about $5k...WAY out of my range.
Persuade me...give me info...anything...Ideas...

Im not looking to make the ultimate rig considering I'm a full time student...but I want it to be a long time thing where I slowly build it up.
I do like the inline engines.
Keep them coming!
