Re: 87 Cherokee Chief That's a good looking ol XJ,my friend! Mine's a '98 with 209K miles. Looks pretty much stock (well,it IS "pretty much",LOL),but it's locked at both ends with 235/75-15's on it :) Here's mine (not hijacking,just sharing the XJ love :mrgreen: ) http://i1180.photobucket.com/albums/...port/004-6.jpg http://i1180.photobucket.com/albums/...port/003-6.jpg |

Oh no worries love the xj love lol shwwet paint job not even a scratch,looks very clean.."thumbsup" any future mods? |
Re: 87 Cherokee Chief oh sweet axial sticker on the side window! im going to need to get one lol |
Re: 87 Cherokee Chief LOL,thanks (on both). Trust me though...the paint looks MUCH better in pics than in person (not intentionally),it's scratched all over (besides the trailing it gets,it looks to have been keyed on the passenger front door before I bought it too :shock::lmao: ) ;-) It could definitely use a respray,but since it's trailed,LOL,probly won't happen :P I did shoot below the trim (which I had just finished repainting the day before these 2 pics BTW,Krylon Fusion satin black) satin black recently,I kinda like it. It's also our current tow rig for a camper we just bought last month for now (at 2,700 lbs empty,well within the Cherokee's tow rating with it having the tow package,rated at 5,000lbs not counting payload),but next Spring will probably buy,like a 3/4 ton church van or similar for tow duty,because with all those extra seats removed,not to mention being a 3/4 ton rig,it'd be like bringing my (mtn) bike shed with us when we go,LOL! Here's the best pic I have of it as it sits today (those first 2 pics were almost 2 months ago,before the black spray added) "thumbsup" http://i1180.photobucket.com/albums/...2084BH/005.jpg http://i1180.photobucket.com/albums/...84BH/004-1.jpg (that's my Dad in the pics,LOL) |
Re: 87 Cherokee Chief LOL,almost forgot...those Axial stickers came with either my Axial Jeep Rubicon RTR or my son's AX10 Ridgecrest RTR on the included sticker sheets. I have the original boxes and stuff-including those sticker sheets-stored at our old house that burned back in '11 (still have a shed there,used for storage now),it's a 2 hour drive and not sure if I'll even get back over this year,but if I do,I'll look-see if there are anymore on those sheets,if so,you're welcome to em,my friend :) |
Re: 87 Cherokee Chief sweet that would be cool if you still have the stickers if not no worries. but shoot looks good sir! I dont have a hitch yet but when i do.. i can finally pull my nice 87 camper trailer lol same color as the jeep haha.. didnt plan it just happened.. but i use my tacoma for that until i get a hitch on the jeep |
Re: 87 Cherokee Chief Looks awesome! You're lucky you can still find em rust free. |
