    aero: 1997 Jeep Cherokee 4x4

    Well, here is my other ride.

    1997 Cherokee
    4.0L I-6
    103k
    4x4 (not currently.. needs a front driveshaft)
    NP242 x-fer case
    Auto


    I purchased it pretty much as it is before a LOT of cleaning up. It needed a transfer case, shocks, and driveshaft to run.

    I also ripped out the sub and amp it had in it (rats nest/fire hazard).
    Tore out CB radio/wiring to the lights on the rack (rats nest).
    Cleaned it up, added the fender flares.
    Modified the doors do be 'quick release' for free a/c





    Plans

    Not too many now since I have the accord and this... I do plan on making a relay/fuse box for inside the cab for the lights on the rack, future lights, and the cb radio instead of having wires all over the place.
    Also want to get a front driveshaft so its 4wd again...

            The 95 Accord is my ... 10th vehicle I have had since I started driving (8 years). Within the last month I have had four (02 4runner, 98 Cherokee, 97 Cherokee, 95 Accord), but currently just have the 98 Cherokee and 95 Accord, and it'll hopefully just be them for a little while.

            I get bored quickly if you cant tell. And if I get a chance to trade for a nice older 4wd toyota pickup for the Jeep, that'll probably happen

            And any mods from here on out on either will be small cheap mods. Only thing for the jeep in the near future will be wiring up the lights the correct way, and getting the 4wd back working.

              Saw a similar sticker like this quite a while ago...

              Was bored over the weekend, and decided I wanted to put it on mine also. We'll see how the rain does with it, they are some create your own bumper sticker sheets from office max, and jus printed off on the computer.

                  since it does look a bit funky w/o doors... I found a picture of some that I am going to see if I can have fabbed up.

                  Not sure if I would paint them black or white, but we'll see.

                    I personally think black would look great.

                      Yeah.... priced them bishes out, and from the company that makes them, they are about $150/door... so $600.

                      So thats out the window for now. (having a shop fab them up would be about the same).

                      So I'll just maybe get ahold of an extra door and chop it up, or get a welder and figure something out.

                      For now I just need to get an alignment since I tore up a tire with a messed up alignment And keep hoping and praying that the sound in the engine bay is from a rocker and not from the bottom of the engine.
