Pictures of my new rig.

**lilacsl2** · 07-23-2006, 02:15 AM

I thought I would post up a couple pictures of what I am working with, its a 1998 I picked up about a week ago, bought it with 100k on it, and have put 1200 miles on it in the 8 days I have owned it.

What I know about it: 3.5 inch tuff country lift (les schwab brand lift I guess) 31x10.50x15 cheapo mud terrain tires on steel chrome wheels. nerf bars and a factory aftermarket grill guard (assuming it was a parts department purchase judging from the liberty's on the lot at work with similar grill guards)

Pics are from Crescent Lake, OR this week, some nice fire roads/telephone access roads etc. to play on.

Looks good man. Very Clean

Yea, I am not a fan of the racing stripes either, but they are painted on so it would be a bear to take them off.

I am located in Newberg, OR, only thing that sucks is, all my wheeling is either at night or during the week i.e. wed/thur.

hooper62 · 07-23-2006, 02:19 PM

oh... well... im supposed to be starting college in the fall... so idk how well that would work... but yeah.. goin to mhcc for automotive...

**lilacsl2** · 07-23-2006, 03:33 PM

The company is tuff country? its like an in house brand for les schwab I believe.

Clean rig! But I don't agree with the stripes so much. But hey, you're unique

i found this
www.tuffcountry.com/suspension_jeep_cherokee.html

don't know anyone that runs tuff country products locally though.

Either way, great looking Jeep. You'll really enjoy it. My XJ has been one of the best vehicles i've owned.

My lift is a 4" TC. Honestly.... It works. But if I wouldn't have bought it already on, I woulda gone with an RE 5.5"
