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!

    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.

    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.

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..
