I had no idea that Im doing a $5000 Cherokee Challenge too! Bought a nice 2001 that was barely running and the entire dash was disassembled sitting in the cargo area. I had the dash reassembled, replaced the head with a Clearwater and bought about $1000 worth of parts from Quadratec to replace the entire rear suspension components and front suspension plus steering components. Im restoring to factory ride height with Crown Heavy Duty springs all around and Bilstein 4600 shocks. Should be done in the next couple of weeks.

Nice build, I have am trying to get info on building XJ jeeps cuz someone offered me a 2 door 4x2 XJ with the manual and the 4 litre in line six engine for dirt cheap. Literally, he said it could be settled for less than 1000 USD. It was crashed in the front but all of it has been taken care of, engine reci3ved no damage, it still needs radiator, hoses and a nuce fan array, but I'm guessing that can be fairly cheap to do. It needs some touch up in the paint due to chiping, but 99% of the jeep has brand new paint on it (2 years old, but it hasn't been touched for the last 2 years, so it is brand new). I'm thinking wheels, tires, a lift and some love can take it from trash to the trail in a matter of weeks.

When you broke the bolts off and then welded it together instead of removing the broken bolts I was confused.Why not do as I do. Just use a smaller drill bit to drill out the broken bolt. Then a slightly larger drill just inside the treads to finish removing the broken bolt. Then use a Tap and Die Set to rethread the holes. You can always go one size larger if the threads are no good.

I have a Jeep TJ that had a small electrical fire under the dash which melted a lot of wires. I was wondering where to get a wire harness. I am going to put an engine harness from Holly(LS swap) so I only basically need it for the lights and stuff not so much the dash gauges.
