The woody jeep started getting too unreliable for me so this year I decided an upgrade was in order. Found a hell of a bargain on this 96 grand cherokee. Its a laredo with the 4.0 and auto trans. Its got a 4 inch skyjacker double flex lift on it, swaybar disconnects, roof rack, and a few more goodies.
Right now I have been collecting a ton of parts for it that are going on in a few weeks. First up is swapping the dana 35 rear axle for a ford 8.8 completeley rebuilt and welded, with forged axles, a lock right locker, rock crusher diff cover, and 4.10 gears. The front axle is also being rebuilt with all new seals and bearings and 4.10 gears, and superior outer axle seals added as well.
Also I have a rubicon express extreme duty track bar, JKS quicker disconnects, and a couple more things waiting for a nice day to get put on as well. I am also building a stereo system for it that should be pretty good, and also I plan on replacing all the heim joints on my control arms with currie johnny joints. what do you think of the new rig?
