Need Advice about Mods
Hey guys I'm thinking about doing following mods to my '93 Cherokee Country. If anyone has any recommendations please let me know!
I'm a newbie so I'm open to any advice. I'm not trying to do too much offroading but from time to time I would like to take it back to the woods. Thanks guys

Someone better with suspension should probably comment, but take a look at the Old Man Emu and Metalcloak lift kits.
Kind of pricey but really good ride quality for both of em. I am not really sure what else is good in a 2" lift but I am sure someone will chime in.
The rusty's tie-rod is just like a ZJ but the center bar is a bit thicker I think. Looks like a good piece of kit.
Also, I would suggest upgrading the track-bar to a double-shear design (like the new Rubicon Express, and Iron Rock Offroad Trackbars)
Don't forget sway-bar quick disconnects too. JKS makes the best ones IMO
Alot of people run these Performance Curve exhausts as well. Seem to be pretty good quality. Maybe paint the outside of the muffler if you live in a salty area - my Dynomax muffer rusted and cracked while I was offroading. Cracked because the rust weakened the flimsy outer shell maybe painting it would have helped?
