Have a 97 4 door 2wd xj. 3" lift 30" tires. I have 200$ saved up so far. I can get 4 soft 8s for 250 or a locker for 300 which should I get first?

No job just been working at some auctions every 2 months but this summer I'm movin to Florida and will have a job there for sure.

 

250 for soft 8's? when did those start getting expensive?

 

I'm guessing you will be doing some mudding in Florida. So I say get lockers.

 

front locker > wheels.

You can get used cragars for 100 - 150

 

go for the locker first, function over form.

 

I like the rims you have now. Rims dont look good when you stuck and getting pulled out by a crappy truck or wrongler. get the locker fer sure.

 

Thanks I like them too but I wanna wider stance and ya makes sense

 

buy some spacers.

 

Aren't they real dangerous

 

lol, id assume they most def can be. I hope not too dangerous, cuz i got 2" spacers on my XJ...... just wear your seatbelt.

 

prbly get a new radiator from the other thread u posted

 

is everone missing this or is it just me? in the op it says 2wd.... uhh save up for a 4wd swap or another cherokee lol. but yea a locker before some over priced soft 8s

 

Where can I find some that aren't over priced.

 

$250 for soft 8s?

Mine were $52/piece when I got them. SummitRacing and then Discount Tire matched the price

 

Even though properly backspaced rims do provide function...


I would get a locker first. Way more beneficial...and fun!


I also added a poll for you.
