i got a new toy yesterday. i picked up an 89 cherokee. it already has some lift with 31in wildcat radial xtx tires. it has the 4.0 with an auto tranny. i,ll get some picks up in a day or 3. i have a few things to do on it before i take it out to play. muffler needs replaced, swaybar, oil leak, heater control valve, nothing major. but once oi get it fixed its GAME ON.

No apologies needed for your concerns for the trail system. Everyone's ideas are good ones. We just have to find that happy medium. You will Love your cherokee. Everyone that has one likes them. If you need any help with it let me know. Head on over to Naxja forum, they have some good info. Another one that is better for mechanical questions is Cherkoeeforum.com I find them better for any technical stuff.

I love those grills What muffler did you put under yours, and how does it sound. Does it have any "droning" inside the cab?

i went with a glass pack muffler from cost less. at idle it sounds like a v-8. im going to re do the entire system this summer after i put in a header.

a little update. a new alternator, a new crank position sensor, which was not a fun project to replace, and a new ballast resistor. it is up and running finally. although its too late tonight for DEQ. bummer for me. so hopefully next week we can get through DEQ and put tags on an go play. new pics in a day or 2. i buffed it out and shes all shiny now.
