My daughter runs the Hello Kitty ZJ. 95 Laredo with 4.0L, 256000km, undercoat oiled yearly, no rusty floors, NP242, rides nice and smooth, a real snow beast, MacKenzie does seem to have an attraction to ditch runs?

I started the conversion today.
I want to mimic the Overland:

I painted the hood today, and freshened up the black trim around the windshield and mirrors.

The Zebra stripes will be added later once I decide the best way to do it.

Hey man, can you post or pm me a pic of how it sits with it on there? I was thinking of throwing a pair of 2" blocks between my axle and springs cause my rear is saggin, but I didn't know how it would look without a front complement.

Default Added Cold Air Intake to my Jeep this weekend

Using a kit I bought from Auto Zone, I added a cold air intake into my 1998 Jeep Cherokee Sport. The installation was quick. The only thing I had a problem with was the filter that they sold me didn't quite fit into the kit that was manufactured by the same company - Spectrum. The filter was 3" in diameter but the kit's pipe was 3-1/4". Why do these manufacturer's make things for their parts that doesn't fit? Anyway, I was able to talk the guy who sold me the kit to force-fit the filter and it took him a while to get it in there but he got it in. Anyway, check it out...
