Fusing with fire
Its not mine but Im building one.
It started lofe as a 1998 TJ.
Twin case Atals
Tummy tuck
Pro rock 60s all around.
Custom 3 link front.
The front axle is pushed 4" forward.
Custom 4 link rear.
Rear axle pushed back 10" rearward.
Everything is hand made.
Hopefully it will be on the Rubicon come summer.
This is what ALL the money buys.
Full droop

Didi they make an Overland Edition for the ZJ worth an extra 15 hp or so? Very clean! Only 46K miles? Wow!

My wife next to my YJ is 5' 7", lol. Rear 9" leaf + spring over conversion on a WJ 44A with a really well done anti-wrap tube bar. Front is a unknown coil over conversion which I swapped to 14" travel King Coil over Adjustable. Front is a 3 link on a Dana 30 (lol), but I got the whole kit and kaboodle for 3k and for another 250 bucks passed emissions not including my labor. Doing a LM7 LS swap soon.

Nice! First years of coil front suspension IIRC?

Freaking classic, all leaf and beef! No death wobble happening here. If you have any questions on the engine build, let me know.

I curse this thing a lot but with 278,000 miles and counting, it’s held up fairly well

I've got over 300,000+ on the XJ but shows 298K+ due to oversize tires. Same trans, power windows work, evaporator took a **** this summer but once again, the power windows work, lol.

Hey, 4 big wheels, a v8 and a roll barAbout as close London is to San Diego
What else is there to it ?
(On a side note, you can't tell, but that Bronco dwarfs a jeep, even without the lift on it)
I’ll probably never own one because I gave all my buddies that had them a hard time back in our mudding days.
However, the thought of a four door Rubicon with 35’s on it would be a fun time. The new pickups would look good lifted, as well. Something like this with a Hemi.

You can't drive around town here in Baja Mexico for more than a minute before spotting a Jeep Cherokee (we have a '92 and '01). They are everywhere. I've lost count how many we have driven in the past. Among others, I remember one Grand Cherokee that died alongside the road one day (had a hole in a piston for some reason). We also had a four-cylinder which was either four or five-speed.

I don't know about that...
I know that the 5.9 Liter Limited was only made in 1998... My dad special ordered that one...
They were only made in 3 colors; black, white and charcoal and no choice in transfer cases, quadra-track full time 4 was standard....

Had a '43 Willys back in the late '70s. I could get it all the way up to 45 mph on flat road with a 5 mph tail wind. No pictures though.

Tree rats seem to like it............
The '19 Grand ..........

This was mine, just sold it, drove the hell out of it the first couple years after building it then it didn't move for most of the next couple year's. Decided someone else should have it who will actually use it. At some point I'm going to build a stretched tj with old school v8 power and 37's, maybe.
I had a '89 Comanche 4x4 with a 4.0 and a five speed. I loved that thing. I got it a year old, and at five years was rotted so bad it failed inspection. I sold it for the drivetrain, which was perfect. Broke my heart.
We have a 2019 Compass, which is my wife's car. She loves it. I'm not a big fan.
