After a few weeks of oogling and drooling and talking, I finally sold my 98 TJ and bought a 1999 Grand Cherokee Limited. It still makes me sad to lose the TJ cause I put a lot of blood sweat and beers into it, but I guess its time to move on. I"m really excited about the possibilities with the new Jeep though. Quick rundown is as follows:
-4.7L V8 with Quadradrive
-33K miles
-Grill gaurd, running boards and rear light cages all painted to match (platinum) with plenty of big nasty Hellas.
-Fully decked interior
-GPS
-Gibson catback
-Tera's S4W 4" lift with Bilstiens
-custom front and rear d.shafts
-completely set up for towing
-265x75x16 brand new BFG AT KOs
oh yeah, did I mention the fact that its got the Kenne Bell supercharger on it?! :eek: I"m definetly in love with this thing. I know I wont be out in the dirt quite as much, but it will see its share. I'll take pics when I get a chance. I know all of the good TJ sites, where to buy parts and where to go to read things, but I need help finding some useful WJ sites. Please help me out and post some good links for me! What other mods should I be considering? Anything anyone has found to be a great improvement? I'm thinking about the addco sways cause I've read some good things, but I'm not sure. At any rate, thanks a million!!

ok now you have me drooling..

I have had 2 xj's a yj, a zj, my wife drives a WJ, and i have my TJ..

i've loved them all.. i've had them all in the dirt..

I'm in the time of really putting my blood into the TJ.. and my wife told me today (2 days after a Badlands run) that she wants to make her WJ ready to follow the TJ through the trails..

i can see exactly where you're sitting.. up in that tall WJ, supercharger at your fingertips.. well foot.. I truly don't blame ya for the trade right now smile.gif And i'm looking very forward to starting work on hers.. smile.gif

Oh No! I can't see trading.
I kept my '97 TJ and added a '99 WJ to the driveway. Love 'em both. One for the dirt and one for the road.
