The day I brought it home, September 30th, 2011.  It sat for a couple of months till I could get started on it.

Cherokee before and after.  Lift, wheels, tires, remove side molding, heat gun and Armor-All on flares, Surco rack.  I did all this the weekend after I got the new long block installed and tuned in.  Roughly mid November of '11.

Not bad for a nearly 15 year old Jeep with 188,000 miles on the clock!

New ProComp fogs and all flares repainted.  Scored two sets of Jeep Ravine wheels, so I have extras and now have a full-size spare in the back.

1.5" wheel spacers pushed the factory wheels out just far enough to give it a more aggressive stance.

My custom install of a Kicker CompVT 6.5 subwoofer.  I wanted it to look like it came from the factory that way.  Still have a little buttoning up to do later.

LED puck lights recessed into the back bumper.  They give off 110 lumens each in a wide dispersion pattern.  Good area lighting right behind the Jeep for messing with trailers at night.  I like that they are tiny, and you may not notice unless you were looking for them.  Another "Jeep made it that way" factory-looking mod.
