My new beater

[Ricer-X]

92 xj, 4x4, 4.0, automatic.
It had a bad trans, pretty sure it was just the solenoid though, anyhow the morning after i bought the truck a good trans pops up on craigslist 5mi from my house for $130, believe i scrambled for that. Its almost all buttoned up now. Its at my buddies shop until i finish the trans and lift.
And thats my daughter/sidekick on the trailer, she has bee to the shop with me everytime, even worked the jack when i put the new trans on. She wears herself out everytime.

Nice! I wanted one of those when I first turned 16, but I got a Grand Cherokee instead. That was a bad move lol

 

[Timrich]

Nice find!

 

[J Everett]

Nice trail truck, Dustin. Love those old Cherokees. Looking forward to seeing more.

 

[Roadwarrior]

Nice, what are your major plans for it?

 

[Ricer-X]

Dont know my end goal yet. Currently its got my ltbs off the 4runner 33x13.5 and this weekend itll go from 3" to 6" lift. Followed by homebrew snorkel and high exit exhaust. Hid aux lights before the first trip at the end of april. From there only time will tell!

Nice! I always liked the old Cherokees.

 

[RANT]

Nice!

 

[Ricer-X]

Tires on, bout to add 3" of lift and do serious fender trimming

 

[Ricer-X]

Didnt get to the lift, had work on the xterra a good part of the day, inpection is due lol. BUT i got to use a plasma cutter today, so awsome. Fenders are cut

 

[Kris&HerX]

Absolutely love the little lady help you have there. I can remember standing on an old milk crate to watch and help my daddy work on our cars. Now she's probably going to grow up wanting an offroad vehicle like you!

 

[RATTFINK]

Nice bro! I know we had a fender thread going and the Cherokee would probably fit the 1st gens. Still have them?

 

[Ricer-X]

Yea i still have em, the flares are in the back of the 4runner and actual fender steel i cut off is in ryans scrap metal bin

 

[Ricer-X]

Got it lifted, waiting on shocks. Cant wait for april!

 

[jmnielsen]
