How does that Mercedes Diesel feel in comparison to the 4.0L? I'm assuming far greater torque than the claimed 225 from the 4.0.. but on the streets or highway how does it compare? Love the build from a fellow XJ owner!

Well a lot has happened since graduating college! I am moving to Camp Hill PA in June so I have been working on things to make the Jeep ready for the move as well as city use. So far i have got accomplished: 1. Minor body work in the rear quarters. 2. An Optima Yellow Top battery in replacement...

I actually only have front spacers in the front coils and that's it. (Previous owner installed) Planning on a 3.5 inch in the very near future!

Decided to attempt to solve the very common issue for XJ's of fuel boiling or vapor locking. I used to have a titanium wrapped manifold which worked very well but has since cracked. Now i decided to turn my attention to the fuel rail and injectors. I decided to wrap the rail and #3 and 4...

Well as more time has gone by I have been able to make a few more improvements to the Cherokee. The first is adding a set of JKS sway bar quick disconnects to the front end. I finally had enough of being the only guy at a trail head who has to disconnect using a pair of 17 and 18mm wrenches haha...

Keeping up with the updates, the biggest upgrade I accomplished over my short winter break was installing a rear swing out tire carrier bumper. The install was a complete pain... it took a full day just to remove the old bumper and hitch due to rusty bolts and another full day to do the install...

With the holiday season out of the way I decided it was time to make some serious upgrades to the XJ. I mean you can only go so long without working on your rig right? So beginning with lighting, I decided to upgrade every interior light to LED as well as my reverse lights so during trips it...

See I like to drive like a 21 year old kid and take corners as hard as the old Cherokee can... So I leave it on haha I just wouldn't trust myself without at least a front lol especially with my old worn out springs and shocks.

I drive wayyyy to much highway to ditch the front but ya my rear is gone lol Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk

yup that was pretty much it. I noticed it more at low speeds actually. The way I found out it was my sway bar link bushings (particularly the lower ones) is when my friend grabbed my roof rack and shook the car from side to side and i heard them banging against the studs!

Haven't been able to do a whole lot to the XJ due to college but i have been able to get the entire interior steam cleaned (carpet, seats, factory floor mats). That was well worth as you'll see by the pictures! It looks and smells brand new. I also fixed a knock I have been hearing by replacing...

Thanks! There should be plenty of stock WJ's out there!

Thanks a lot for the kind words! I am looking forward to following your future thread and YouTube channel! And believe me my budget is tight now too haha that's why there has been very few updates recently lol Also, take a moment and check out my Instagram to see everywhere I have been in the XJ...

I would say overall they are better. It is a noticeably improved ride on rougher surfaces such as gravel or dirt roads. However, I have noticed a bit more body roll on the road so that is something to keep in mind. And they are bolt on other than the fact that JK's do not use bar pins so I had...

Since I have just recently started my senior year back at college progress has been slow. The only recent "upgrade" I have done is replaced the front shocks with ones from a JKU Rubicon for a better ride on bumpy, gravel roads. The difference is great and since they were free I would say the...

Looks super clean brother! Im excited to watch the build grow! My 97 XJ is almost that clean..... almost.. lol after about 178,000 miles!

Well there is a lot going on in my life right now so therefor not a lot going on with the Jeep! It has been perfectly reliable since the trip including a 3 day weekend at the Bantam Heritage Jeep Festival! My question is, if anybody takes the time to read this, what do you look for in a quality...

Well I haven't posted in a while so I figured I was due for an update! I finally received my OB patches and got them on as well as sanded and painted the entire rear axle!

Huge fan of your YouTube channel bro! Can't wait until you come to PA! Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk
