just joined a while back, figured I should make a post. From Missoula MT, just purchased a 98 Cherokee that needs a little love. Good thing I have plenty to give...

 

Welcome to the forum

 

thank you sir.

 

So what are your plans? Keeping it stock? Lifting and building it? Maintenance?

 

I have lots planned and in the books, but since Im ballin' on a budget Its going to take a while to get the end product. Since I bought it in August I have replaced the radiator, elec. fan, thermostat, alternator, battery, and have just bought an exhaust manifold from a yard to replace my cracked one. Also needs ball joints here in the very near future. After that I can start wasting money on it.

1. 5inch OME lift
2. 33" Tires on 16s
3. JCR bumpers and rock sliders (or Rocky Road rock sliders)
4. E Lockers & 4.10s (has 8.25 so i dont need to fudge with it too much)
5. Plasti Dipped paint and Bumpers
6. Safari Rack w/all the attachments
7. CB & winch
8. LED headlights to go with the Rigids I already have
9. JCR Rear quarters
10. Trimmed fenders (possibly flat fenders...still debating)
11. intake, headers, free flow exhaust, chip, maybe port and polish the head and throw a mild cam in
12. hood louvers
13. and on and on and on

Thank you sir! I've learned a ton already...been doing a lot of reading about other jeep builds and what not. Fun stuff!
