Need a Spot
I purchased this T100 off of Ebay and am picking it up from the shipper early next week:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...84127&sspagename=ADME:L:RTQ:US:1

I was able to verify all the repair records and it looks like the previous owners took really good care of it.

I have been driving a modified Jeep Cherokee the past several years and wanted to know what modifications I can do to the suspension and engine to boost power, mileage and make it more trail friendly. Also what can I do to get some flex out of the stock IFS front end?

Thanks in advance for your input.

Body Damage is Cool
do a search on Headers/Exhaust, Balljoints spacers, these topics are covered pretty well in the T100 forum.

Getting the Wheeling Fever
I've done a lot of power mods and I have to say that I probably wouldn't do many of them over again. It's just to costly. I could buy a used, full-sized truck for the money I've spent thus far. Now, don't get me wrong, I really dig my truck. And I anticipate owning it for a long time; maybe retiring it to the farm. It all depends on what you want to spend. The SC is super-costly and doesn't work with '95s and '96s (not without a lot of other modifications; many of which I've done). One cool thing about the 4x4wire board is that we can help you maximize your cost:power/performance ratio. We've all been there. smile

My recommendation on that very nice looking truck you bought: I'd go with JBA headers, deck mod, lightweight harmonic balancer, high flow air filter, 4" suspension kit, LSD, and new seatbelt retraction mechanisms.

If you did it yourself, it'd come in < 3k. I think that's 3 Gs well spent. All depends on what you want to spend .
