Between each panel being a different color, the colors that are actually ON the jeep, the dull/sanded/bondo'd condition, and spending money on only necessary stuff.... that thing reminds me of the General Mayhem.



Too bad that wasn't a cherokee chief, you could call it "Chief Mayhem"

Looks good man.

It also has a new radiator, water pump, transfer case, power steering pump, hoses and a mid frame unit body stiffener. The only thing is that there's a slight drip from the transmission case (a couple of drops). Looks like it's coming from the seal next to the oil pan. The trans works great when driving. Everything else on this vehicle is like new. Odometer reads 200,000 miles. My questions are: What do you think about the transmission fluid drip? Is the mid frame unit body stiffener enough to keep the body in tact? I want to hunt with this truck, not necessary do serious off-road. Should I raise and put larger tires, or can I just put larger tires that would suffice for hunting conditions?

Wrong place man. Create your own thread.

They'll fit. You need to ditch the flares and trim a little sheet metal though. Also helps if you get extended bump stops or bump stop spacers too.

Here's mine on 3.5" on 32s.... You can see how well they fit, so another 1" in diameter isn't gonna make a difference, really.
