    Thanks, Stumper!
    just made few new photos ...the latest "look". Now on DC-1 10x15 and Cooper Discoverer ATRs 265/70/R15. Had to trim the conners of fender flares and actually cut a bit of metal there too to make it work/fit with my no-lift "configuration" . So far so good

    those are some really good tires that you got on there they must set you back a bit. i have been good i sold my 88 and got a 88 comanche. it has been a hassel because it has a 98 4.0 HO motor in it and i am trying to wire it into the old Renix wiring harness. it is fighting me every step of the way. i think that i am about to get a waggy either today or tomorrow, i am excited. the trail that you are going on sounds like a dream, i cant wait to see some pics of it. be carefull because i dont to see on the news that some crazy canadians got killed off-roading lol. alright man have fun.

    not much new here, added some small spacers to the front, got some longer shackles but discovered i need longer brake lines before i put them in....so they are on hold for now. got a front skid and a smaller tc drop....should be ready for some harder trails soon!

    i uploaded some more pics of the jeep after the front bumper upgrade. btw the front bumper i got off a guy on ebay who makes them and sells them around $200-250. then i just got spray on bedliner and im pretty happy with it. got fog lights from walmart and ordered the white bulbs off ebay for a couple bucks. changed the whole look of the jeep for me!

    as you can see the back end is starting to sag so i gotta get new leaf springs.

    mine has about a 3" lift and 31"s. expect rub on those bumper caps if you put them back on. and also be prepared to do something about drivtraine vibes. the newer cherokees seem more prone to them, from what ive read its because of the output shaft on the transfer case not having as much 'shell' around it and the fact that all cherokees have a slip yoke in the T.C. not the shaft. I might not be explaining it right but it seems like the 97 and up are more prone to vibes, theres plenty of stuff on here about it. Also people tend to discourage blocks on the rear springs for lift. And im not crazy about rough country stuff, shock only lasted about a year. And in the kind of mud you described, you probably want a mud tire not all terrains.

    Anyway, thats just some stuff ive observed. Theres alot more knowledgeable people than me on here!

    Have fun!

    And ill upload some better pics.

    those bumper caps are really cheap on ebay. and if you get them new you wont have to armor all them every week so they dont turn grey.

    Thanks, and yeah i got a bunch of pics i just have to remember to upload them. ive since taken off the molding cause it was all grey and faded and got a new front bumper.

    I dont know what kind of terrain exactly you have by you but I got the BFG TA KO tires that alot of people use and I love them! They werent that much money, good all around of and on road tires-much better than stock tires.
