Hi, my name is Gabe. I have a 96 jeep cherokee xj. 4.0 5-speed. 99 intake, bored throttle body. k&n intake. header, rustys cat back ehaust. budget boost 2in spacers. 1in. springs, unkown lower control arms. stock upper. rear is a shackle and add a leaf. I put in a dana 44 with limited slip and 3:73 gears. and stock front axle out of an 88 jeep to match gears. no sway bars. I take my jeep everywhere and love finding new places to go. This is my first 4x4 and would like to start off slow with other people with 4x4s who like doing the same thing and know what there doing.

Hey, welcome to SCUFF. You found the right place if you are just starting out. You will find everything from the casual off reader to the extreme rock crawled and everything in between. Everyone one I have met through this site have been great people and I am happy to know them. There is also a lot of knowledge here, so if you have questions or issues, ask away. You will not be flamed or made fun of for asking, this is how you learn. Enjoy the site and post pics of your rig.

No, they mount a little different and my front fenders come a little lower so there would have been a gap all the way across. So while I had it off I cut mine to this. Thanks I like it alot better. Im still trying to get some more pictures of it up here.
