1989 Jeep Cherokee XJ Build

[EvilBunny]

I decided to make a build thread for my Jeep just for fun and to keep track of how far it will come. I'm still early in the build though at this point I've gotten tires and a lift as well as a Cb radio that needs to be installed.
Pretty soon i'll be fabricating all the parts I need such as front and rear bumpers and rock sliders and a roof rack. Possibly even new fenders. Also the rear damage you see that I havent gotten to fixing as i've been busy is from this minor setback that I show as well

Talked to the old owner and found out it's actually a 4.5 inch lift that just sags in the rear and bit and needs new shocks. Adds to my list of things to do but that can wait. First thing to come is a 100% aluminum pressure bottle for the coolant so they no longer can blow up or crack like they are known to do. Making a run of a couple to list on ebay to put more money into the jeep. That money will probably go to steel to build a front winch bumper.
