| Grand Cherokee? | | Who here has one? What year is it? What options does it have? What if any modifications have you done to it? Do you 4 wheel it? What future modification plans do you have?I just purchased mine last November (2008) it is a 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee in Silver/Pewter. It has the 318 cubic inch v-8, 4 speed automatic transmission, full time all wheel drive, and four wheel drive capability, it has a power sun roof, power windows, power door locks, power stearing, power brakes, 4 wheel disk anti lock brakes, trailer hitch, onboard diagnostic computer, onboard trip computer, cruise control with stearing wheel controls, leather seats, tachometer, Dana 44A rearend, Dana 35 front end.
I have put on new front cammo seat covers, side window vent visors, tint, sterio, all the fluids have been changed with full synthetics.
I plan on putting the Aussie locker I have in the rear end, lifting it 4" with a Rough Country lift, and putting 31" Mud tires on 15" Black steal wheels.
Yes I go 4 Wheeling, I just have to get this rig up to par before I become very active.So tell me about your Jeep Grand Cherokee! | |
