Jeep Cherokee XJ Build Walk Around | 5.5in lift 37s
Here’s a nice walk around video of my 1996 Jeep Cherokee overland XJ build! I just recently finished axle swapping Wrangler JK Rubicon axles into it. This will give you an update on all the new things I have done to the Jeep!

I have fallen in love with the XJ. I’m planning on buying one in the coming two years. Videos like this hold me over until then.
I was super hyped for this notification!! Definitely blessed for that opportunity man. Congratulations my guy💪🏼💪🏼
Congrats on the job man!! Super stoked about the new video👍
So much to love about this Jeep; well done!
Beautiful xj love it 👌💪🏼💯
its a beast! love this xj!! and congrats on the job!
For bump stops I recommended Prothane coil spring inserts, you can get them through summit racing. They work great and I can’t even feel when I hit bump, they work.

Congrats on the dream job. Consider flipping steering gear on top of axle, simple to do and you get steering gear out of the way of rocks.
Great build you are very talented
Congrats on the new job man. Like you, I do lots of side jobs as they come and know how hectic it can get, so the channel gets put on back burner. Money doesn't buy happiness but it buys a jeep parts and I ain't never seen a sad person in a jeep. 😄

Sick as fuck bro!! Just got my 95 xj last week 141k miles 2nd owner from my uncle 2200 bucks!
She's a beauty 👌
Where in NC are you? I'm over in Elizabeth City. I plan to go out to Uwharrie in a couple weeks. Have made a couple trips out to Windrock and plan to again this fall. Know any other good places out this way to wheel?

My son just bought himself an 87’ 4x4 jeep Cherokee . How easy is it to make it bad ass.

What flares are on it?
Where can I get that hood at
I hope you have better luck with that Dynomax muffler than I did.I bought the same set up and in less than 6 months the internals of the muffler came loose and caused a major rattle.....
Your XJ looks amazing. I got a '97 recently and it has d35/c8.25. It came with 4-4.5 lift on 33s and already cut fenders. I've gone ahead and installed 4.56's so I want to switch to 35's but...I'm not sure if there is anything else I should upgrade to install 35's. Any advice would be great. I'm also planning on maybe changing to 3.5 lift but don't know if it'll clear the 35s. Thank you.
2 questions bro .... thinking of getting a 4.5 inch rough country lift and trying to run 35 inch tires on that ... but before the new tires im going to buy bushwaker flat fender flares - you think there will be clearance ? And 2nd question where can I find a jeep xj headliner fabric ? Mines sagging inside ... thanks
Nice build man! One of the best looking XJ's on the planet! Do you have any plans to upgrade the T-Case?
Where can I get this hood
It's all about the girth😂😂
I know you sold this, it’s definitely a beautiful beast.. I’ve moderately built 3 now and sold under the $6.5k range..I now have in my hands a 87 AMC.. I’ve seen all your videos and what you actually sold the XJ for.. my question is.. how much in total non fabricated parts? If that makes sense.. I’m thinking of following your guide and build it similar without the custom fabs and stick to a good alternative for those parts..I will be running 35’s on my build..thanks for any input you may have and CONGRATULATIONS on the gig man..
Fender model ?
If I was to copy all the suspension ,axles and steering components what would that cost me.

If you did it yourself probably around 8-10k
If Jeep upgraded the interior and made the same physical/mechanical design today in 2021 people would buy them like hot cakes.

Hi
I’d say that’s the build ima do but with 33s cause your standing so tall yet your tires are 37 you’ll still rub on extreme flex ofc I live in Utah and we have the best Offraod trails so where you are you may be solid
I hate building other people rigs . Mainly I hate bolting junk on .
Finish lol we never finished buddy
37s and still on short arms lmao. You can really tell how much this thing is used lol. Making the xj into the new ricer..
