Hey VT fam!
Today I bring you a summary of my 2000 Jeep Cherokee XJ build. From the moment I bought until today. Just have in mind this is a work in progress and we are always improving it and willing to take it to the next level.
I tried to include as much footage as I could but the video was getting extremity long so I decided to leave some out.
I will attach a link to my Amazon store where you can find most of the upgrades shown in this video. ENJOY!!!

How much is your suspension? Just wondering because I just got the $1000 rough country x series 4.5 inch lift and wondering if it’s a good lift

@VehicleTribe 4 года назад

I paid $800 when I bought it from a local guy (original price from website was $945) and then I added the fox shocks that - $400 the set of 4. The only reason I got the RC lift kit was because of the price. It is an "ok" system for beginners.

@MrLaurenceDunn 3 года назад

The ideas here are great, as a Jeep owner for the last 23 years, I can appreciate the custom work that can be done to XJ, WK, and ZJ Jeeps which are very cheap to buy in the UK and maintain if you pick the right ones that have not been abused too much. I run a WK 5.7 HEMI on LPG which gives me the same running costs as a small car.

@ElPlantPapi Год назад

How reliable is the XJ? I’m currently looking to get one and mod it with a friend of mine. I have one with a 90k miles on my sight but I wanna make sure the motor won’t bust. I’m not a huge 4x4 guy, i would mostly use it in the city and the occasional weekend off roading.

@MrLaurenceDunn Год назад

@@ElPlantPapi I would say they are great engine wise with the 4.0, but watch out for breaking plastics on 20 year old trucks. Lucky for you the aftermarket for the XJ is there to cater for all the parts you'll need. If I was going to buy one now, it would have to be the 2001 in yellow

Looks nice I’m on my 4th Cherokee that I’ve redone from the ground up I love these old Jeep’s. Biggest had 7 inches of lift and the smallest has 3 inches of lift. I prefer to buy 93-95 Cherokees as I find them to be owned by original owners a lot more and I’ve found them to be better maintained. Last one I bought for a grand was in perfect shape 1 owner.

@xmo552 4 года назад

XJ's became highly popular and their prices seem to have gone up. I would look at ZJ and WJ, they can be cheap and capable. Still kinda affordable but you might have to make payments = look at a WK. The WK has ifs (no live axle up front), but some have e-lockers and hemi. Or look at the "kinda xj" 2008-12 KK Liberty. Another Jeep that I think gets overlooked often is the 2006-10 XK Commander. This one is built on the same platform as the WK. I want an XJ, but I've been considering these others. I built mom a shweet WJ Freedom Edition.... I might just keep that one and get her something else.

Great job! I read some of the comments and got an idea on how much the project cost minus the $725 you paid for the Jeep Cherokee. It still would of been nice to see an itemized list with the cost. Also, where did you get the knowledge to do all the work you did to the Jeep. Was it from a formal tech school, working on other vehicles with your friends, or watching a lot of RU-vid videos? Also did you get help from your fellow off-roaders?

Love the bumper paint job! Overall, this thing looks very capable. Who did you go with for the steering brace? Get some extended bump stops ASAP, though because those tires are huge! Have you given any thought into JCR frame stiffies to reduce unibody twist?

@VehicleTribe 4 года назад

Thanks man! I went with Ironman4x4 for the steering brace with sector shaft and Blue Top steering box. I do have to add some bump stops (last time I went off-road I cut the front tires by rubbing against the fender/front bumper). I'll tackle the frame stiffeners when I do the axle swap.

@ChatanikaRoosting 4 года назад

@@VehicleTribe Awesome, thanks. I'll look into that steering brace. I'm excited for your 44 swap: I have a rear 44 in mine with a Detroit locker and it's been great for my purposes. The JCR mid stiffeners (pricey to have a shop weld) have quieted the unibody creaking significantly.
