Looks great! How often do you make it to Aetna? You should come ride with me and some of my friends sometime. My current ride is an 02 TJ with approprate mods :mrgreen:

Re: LR3 Builds a 1:1 - 2003 Grand Cherokee
 

Looks good...did you build the bumper?

I can't tell, do you have rock sliders?

Re: LR3 Builds a 1:1 - 2003 Grand Cherokee
 

I've been wanting to get a cherokee but this grand cherokee has got me re thinking it, i really like the way it looks man, good job"thumbsup"

Re: LR3 Builds a 1:1 - 2003 Grand Cherokee
 

I have only made it once. We are planning another trip sometime though
Yea the bumper is built with flat plate and DOM tubing. I dont have sliders yet so that is my next thing
Thanks! Cherokees and GCs are both good daily drivers while still tearing the trails up

Re: LR3 Builds a 1:1 - 2003 Grand Cherokee
 

Those are a must, i'm on mine all the time. They don't need to be big and obnoxious, mine is like 1.5" square tubing, can't even tell its there till you need it. Just enough to keep the rocker panels straight.

Also just curious, why choose km2's over bfg a/t's if its going to be mostly a dd?

Re: LR3 Builds a 1:1 - 2003 Grand Cherokee
 

Looks good Ryan, what did all of that run ya if you don't mind me asking? Have you had it out anywhere testing it yet?

Re: LR3 Builds a 1:1 - 2003 Grand Cherokee
 

I haven't had a chance to test it yet. Total with wheels tires and everything it was about 4500 bucks

Today was a productive day. It started out by hunting stockers:

Then I became very very very sick. I got Paintitis. Symptoms include paint covered hands, and the constant need to paint something. I like black and silver, so I blacked everything out. There is not a single bit of chrome on my Jeep now. Started masking everything:

Also did the turn signals in lens tint:

Also painted the area behind the bumper black so it blends in and the fender wells black:

And here is how it sat at the end of the day:

Re: LR3 Builds a 1:1 - 2003 Grand Cherokee
 

really amazing bro! love all the black outs. glad to see you finally got some good tires. those had to make a huge difference!

Re: LR3 Builds a 1:1 - 2003 Grand Cherokee
 

How you gonna order new wheels then need spacers? Do they not make them in the correct offsets?

Re: LR3 Builds a 1:1 - 2003 Grand Cherokee
 

I ordered the wrong offset by mistake. They fit perfectly with the spacers though

Re: LR3 Builds a 1:1 - 2003 Grand Cherokee
 

i'm not a big grand cherokee fan, but this one had me swayed a bit.
good job on the rig, i'm digging the bumper.
"thumbsup"

Re: LR3 Builds a 1:1 - 2003 Grand Cherokee
 

Well, I got a high knuckle HD steering assembly on the way, a rear eaton e locker, and some limit straps on the way

Re: LR3 Builds a 1:1 - 2003 Grand Cherokee
 

dang son, you win the lottery? or buying everything on CL for $20?

Re: LR3 Builds a 1:1 - 2003 Grand Cherokee
 

Haha well the plans changed. Locker is waiting. Steering is more important. A locker would do no good if I cant steer the thing

Re: LR3 Builds a 1:1 - 2003 Grand Cherokee
 

Whats wrong with your steering?
