XJ Cherokee Abandoned to Beast On a Tiny Budget!
Ойын-сауық
DEAD IN THE SCRUB
Found completely dead in a patch of overgrown grass. See how we gave this jeep new life!
Now, remember all items are the best-priced mods that have the best results. this is simply the yard jeep that I wanted to look cool. what better way to have fun with mates than to bolt on some cool cosmetic goodness!

Looks so cool!! What a change!
Turned out good mate. Lights look great. 👍🍺❤️🇦🇺
A few interesting things on this one. The Air Conditioner compressor is on the driver side below the power steering pump? LIke on a newer TJ or WJ? That air box on top of the throttle body is a new one for me also.
Nice XJ bro....👍👍its my dream to have an rhd XJ
Another great episode
Looks sweet. I think the flares were maybe for a 2 door xj, not many here in Aus though
Holy shit, she cleaned up nice! Awesome video!
Love the xj. Have a wj currently.
looks good for cheap. quickly aren't the light bar mount on the wrong side? might lift it that little higher to install on the correct mounting holes
Nice rig I have an xj with the same lift kit
Looks like it'll get you down the trail and back now.Your daughter can learn some skills driving that one.She was doing well in your intro.Speaking of,I said it before:The new intro is Great !

I didn’t want it on my door as the screw lined up with the pinch weld of the door but yes lack of hydration was a issue
Looks tonka tuff
Thats killer !
Soo much better🔥
man loves his jeeps😂😂
Are the sounds that all the packages making very pleasing to anyone else, or just me?
If you didnt buy a adjustable track bar you need to drill a hole 1 inch over and bolt it in to get your front end straight
Ever done a 4.5" lift and with out a sye I want to do it but will I have to buy a drive line that's custom made for front just curious if u have nice wrk on the xj bud!
the TJ arms would fit on the XJ. The XJ,ZJ,TJ, and WJ all use the same factory control arms upper and lower
Well. That's just great. Now I want an XJ. Thanks. Looks amazing. It's a awesome transformation.

Do yourself a huge favor and look to the Japanese, something with a roller cam. I put a different/ new engine in my yj every 20k miles. Cherokees were always very cheap. Not anymore. I put a 4.0 in my hot rod truck. Rebuilt it twice in 25k because it chewed the cam gear that drives the distributor and the second time the comp cams ate like 3 lobes. Word to the wise

@@KZreadcensoredmyusername Plenty of people in the states have high mileage 4.0l rock crawlers on 40s they beat on with zero mechanical sympathy and haven’t had any of the issues you claim to have had. Mine has 260k miles on the original 4.0, previous owners were running it low on oil and overheating it when I bought it 10 years ago and i haven’t had a single engine issue

I love it.
do you even need flares? just do the cut n fold/no flares looks awesome.
What size tires did you put on? Thanks
When it comes to the flares you installed them wrong. First of all they require some trimming on the fender wells. Second, that the rear are two pieces because the smaller front piece mounts onto the door so that you have the flare and can still open the door. You may have even mounted the rear ones on the wrong side. As for the front, they are supposed to wind up flush with the front bumper skirt but somehow you got them with a gap of a couple of inches. Seeing how you royally screwed up the rears and didn't trim the fender first I'm positive that the fronts not fitting right was you're screwing those up too. Don't blame the product for your crappy work.

Face it, your flares are shit. No one is going to buy them just because you go around defending them on every channel that shows how shit they are.

On those wheels did you just have the center caps or do you know any place to buy them?

Few mods are the best ones
Actually they're going up in price very quickly. And the outside of it looks very good.

Time for a Beijing spinny thannng flares look shit but putting those wide wheels on made it look tough as haha
shoulda just did the cut and fold on the fenders, you lose alot of wheel clearance with flares

I’ll pretend I didn’t hear it 😂
you gotta get your lighting a bit better if you want people to see what your doing under the jeep, i really wanted to learn what was going on so i can do it to mine aswell but could not see half the time
Fuck yeah that looks mint with the wheels and rims👌👌
looks good especially now you washed it. Next step big turbo
The reason the archies on the rear didnt fit good. Is because not fitted correctly what so ever plus your suppose to attach part of the arch to the door. You most prob already figured that out.
I would be very interessted in how you started the engine after the jeep sat for so many years?

The flares are right you just didnt install them right. They are for when u cut the wheel well out and raise the flare up higher. The front was suppose to go up like 2in higher same with rear and you cut away tje wheel wells. Read directions next time. Go watch a video you can still do it right. And get more room for bigger tires to.
You didn’t say anything about loctite on that light bar? Atleast blue!
Look like it came out of the factory
What size are the tires??
So your jeeps are just weekends toys?

I bought a perfectly running xj for $1500. Dude wanted $2500 but I brought him down.
Peww peewww
It LOOKS better.... but really theres a few things I just don't get: If you aren't getting it registered, why bother wasting anyoney on those rubbish flares? Why bother keeping the swaybar? Then you spend a heap of cash on lights that it will probably never need?... cause its not like you're going to be going down the hwy at 110kph - its not rego'ed. But then you shortcut the suspension SO much. Heck I don't understsnd why you didn't simply use the TJ arms. which are FAR better quality than the ones you fitted? Not even cheap correct length shockies - but its got a sick light bar?? If you wanted a beast of a garden gnome, chop the guards, 37" and make the pig flex.
I paid 350$ for mine running no major rust
