Move is done, and it was successful!!

Welcome!!

Destination XJ

That's good! How the hell did you move the tank?

bmrrwolfe

Well I used the 4 5 gallons buckets with lids for the ciclids 3 got there own, and the two smallest shared, and 2 10G totes almost filled, one for the pleco, and one for the knife.
Emptied the rest of the water, took off the filters heater aerator and half the rocks, and loaded the tank next to the stand in the back of the KJ still having room for the buckets behind them, but the totes had to fit inside the stand.
drove over very carefully to my moms added new rocks cleaned the decorations set up the heater aerator and filters, and started pouring water till I had a good 6" deep and added the pleco and his water, got it about 9" deep and added the knife and his water, then the cichlids and there water, adding another 15G of water, with clearifier and stress coat, and got my *** home to get to work!
All in all it took about 3 hoursish?

Also my dad sent me this pic today while at work:

I guess hes out driving it around now!

Destination XJ

I has jealous of that jeep! Haha I'm still talkin to the guy about the red one!



Yeah moving a tank takes time! I'm surprised you got it done that fast. Hope they all handle the move well!

Oh and if you decide to change anything on that xj I want dubs on parts! lol

bmrrwolfe

Yeah the move went pretty quick and so far the fish all seem fine!
Haha I think I like just about every part on it. But would like to do little things like tint the tail lights and clear markers and maybe a roof rack. When I first found it the pics showed it with just cut fenders and no flares and no rock sliders and I almosted passed it up until he said it has brand new bushwackers and brand new JCR rock sliders! Which between the two are like $500+ alone? So I really jumped on it!

Destination XJ

Damn! Yeah that's a nice addition to the jeep! Roof rack and some lights and you should be good to go.

Destination XJ

So Tomorrow morning I should be the proud new owner of a 91 Jeep Cherokee Limited!

WOOT WOOT!!!

It cost me the truck and the bike but Im happy. Im getting a Enclosed Media blaster out of the deal too.

bmrrwolfe

Yeah the move went pretty quick and trouble free, and so far the fish are doing great!
Haha I think I like just about everything on it Whats funny is when I first saw the pics of the XJ I almost turned it down because it had cut fenders with no flares and it didn't have the rock sliders, then he told me he just put new bushwackers and JCR rock slider, and it included a new factory style radiator, and that alone was $500+ in parts so I knew I had to do it!

Looks very nice! I like that color and the paint looks nice and shiny. Also it looks pretty rust free! That spare tire carrier is pretty neat. What lift does it have? Engine looks very clean and looks like it has a battery which is a plus. Also its a limited, so does it have all pwr interior and leather? If so that is an awesome XJ!
Congrats!!
We need some interior pics tomorrow.
Although I think a set of bigger foglights is needed up front

Destination XJ

Yeah inside is mint, the drivers seat I think is stuck but its all the way back so Im good.

Paint is shiny with a few flaws from going off road. He said he fixed all the rust about two years ago, In the floors and and rockers. So its nice and solid and you cant tell he fixed it.

140k on the motor, looks clean and runs nice. He said it rode like a brick but the thing felt damn nice to me! It has sky jacker mile high lift kit (no lifting blocks)sky jacker control arms,shocks ,steering stabilizers,and drops Got to swap the aal's with full packs in spring tho.

I want to get rid of those ford rims and get some soft 8's or wagon wheels. I found a guy that has wagon wheels for 10$ each. Ill just clean them and paint them black.

Yeah The tire carrier it cool, Ill keep it on there, Just will have to fab it to the new bumper when I replace it.

bmrrwolfe

Yeah those are stock explorer rims aren't they? If you can get a set of 15" wagon wheels fr $10 a piece, I would jump all over them, and spray them black and that thing will really look good!

Destination XJ

They were on CL, I just have to wait to get new tire too, because these are 16's!

Im sorta freaking out hoping this dude dont flake out over night. I should of did the titles right then and there when he offered.

bmrrwolfe

Well if for some odd reason he did flake, it would just mean its not meant to be! But hopefully he won't cause that is a nice start for an XJ.

Destination XJ

Thats true Im just super excited about having one!

Destination XJ

It's mine!!

bmrrwolfe

Congratss!!
What are your first plans for it!?
