Bought my first jeep and it's also my first ride! 87 xj for $500

Fixed that for you.

Please don't call your Jeep a car. It will get you banned:nono: and makes your jeep unhappy. Then it will start to cry and leave spots on the driveway.:rofl:

Time to do a full fluid swap and greasing. While you're under there, give a tug on all of the steering and suspension and evaluate the rust situation too.
Good luck with your Jeep, and welcome to the family.

I will get pics but she's not to bad for the year and the amount of rust is amazingly low :thumbsup: she's leaving spots though time to take a look I think that it. As for the spots I think I have a leaky power steering Pump.

Started pulling the carpets out of my xj

 

[Luke95]

:cheers2: almost all of the carpets gone :cheers2: and she started right away.
I have a question what the difference between laredo and base in the 87's?

 

[Luke95]

Can I get some help?
I need to know what axle is in my jeep I think its a 44 do to it being a 87' with a metal fill plug and it has 10 bolts to hold the cover on. Does that sound like a 44? :thumbsup:

DANA 35 EWWWWWW

Would 31's and a 4.5 lift with cut fenders look dorky? :wave:

 

[Luke95]

The correct images of mine would be...
4.5 inches on 32's.

Still think it looks Ok,
John

I like it! I may go to 32's but I want to save a little money
Im about to sell my kidney to pay for this addiction:rtft:

 

[Luke95]

sat in her and cried
CT licensing sucks I have to wait another four month's till I can ride around in her on my own :crying:

 

[Luke95]

Stanced

getting ready for cutting

 

[Luke95]

Changed oil, removed headliner for refinishing (watch out for the fiberglass), and added some Hella 55 watt driving lights.

:cheers2: Welcome to the forum

Hey guys questions for ya all
With the rusty's offroad 4.5 kit
http://www.rustysoffroad.com/jeep-s...s/rustys-xj-cherokee-4-5-spring-pack-kit.html
Will I be opening a can of worms and have it be better to go with the 3 inch kit?

 

[Luke95]

oops sorry double posted

 

[Luke95]

Hey any one here able to help me?
I have a set of lower control arms

They are for a 4.5 rusty's lift but as my major plans for my heep have changed I dont need them and have no clue what to price them at? They are new and havent even been mounted!

 

[Luke95]

Two from last night was cutting the jeep mounts to weld some new ones in.

 

[Luke95]

Jeep mounts? lol

Oops I meant bumper mounts trying to type pet the dog and hold a conversation is to much for me at times haha :rofl:

 

[Luke95]

Hey what lift is best?
Rubicon Express 3.5 super flex is the one im looking at

 

[Luke95]

Depends. What tire size you wanna run? Im assuming no bigger than 33s based on that.

31's mainly do to cost
I understand its a little bit of money but as a jobless teen im trying to do the best without cheaping out...

 

[Luke95]

To be honest every jeep ive been in with RC hasnt given me the biggest fuzzy's I am willing to shell out up to $850 with shocks.
But thanks man
