Project Cheap HEEP
Finally bought me another 4x4. Its a 1989 Jeep Cherokee Pioneer. Has the 4.0/twin stick. Plans are to lift it and turn it into a trail rig. Only has a 196k miles on it which is low for the year so it runs great.
This will be a long term project, but I am hoping to have most of what I want done in a year.
I will be starting off with a rusty's offroad 3" lift I scored off CL for 50 bucks. Only thing its missing is new shocks. Gonna try and find a decent set of used wheels/tires for it. The ones on it now are warn/cupped/dry rotting.
List of future mods long term:
3" lift for now and slowly upgrade to more lift.
wheels/tires
regear
front and rear bumpers(rear with tire carrier)
Roof basket with lights
winch
and when the time comes refresh the engine/trans
Now the pictures
Here's where it starts. I will hopefully have the lift and new tires on in the next couple of weeks!

They will be on there until I need a tire that is to wide for the wheel or I get a damn good deal on wheels/tires. They will go to the garage once they come off.
