so i think i will finally get around to putting up a post of my cheromanchee in process. heres what i started with. a 1992 cherokee laredo with a blown motor i got for free. got the motor rebuilt and put all back in. while i was rebuilding the motor i pickup a 4.5'' lift from cfletch off the rolled red cherokee and ran it for a while then decided i wanted a little more so i picked up a 77 ford dana 44 and ford 9 inch 5.13 gears aussie front locker and spool for the rear, tnt customs truss. for a lift i ordered a 8.5-9'' rustys long arm lift and then decided i wanted to make a 4 door truck out of it so i chopped the back and started filling all open pannels so thats where i am at now putting it all together heres all the pictures so far still a major work in progress. s623.photobucket.com/albums/tt313/mvandebergh33/?action=view¤t=l_a003698e3d703e0283411a540e955b44.jpg

the tailgate will be able to lower but wont support any weight seeing how jeep decided to make the whole rear hatch out of fiberglass , i sent out my axles yesterday and should be getting them back by sunday if everything goes right, still have to fix a little tcase issue, for some reason it wont shift into 2 wheel drive just 4 low and 4 high.
