I usually think that I will be all set with my next purchase and not get anything for awhile but then another thing comes to mind. The bottomless pit of spending that is a truck (in my case). 98' Toyota Tacoma SR5 Manual Xtra Cab, Slight Lift Maine Rules!

It's a great Cherokee transmission, but not very heavy duty. I think one in a YJ or CJ would be cool for mild use but I would look for something a litte less electronic and more stout for a built up off road rig. But that's just me.. Good luck with your project, it sounds like fun. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> Freedom Off Road Re: My Build [Re: JeePete] #736336 08/19/06 08:46 PM Joined: Mar 2006 Posts: 165 Okaloosa County, FL T Tikitgvr OP Wheeler Well got the body off of the old frame today with the assistance of smitty and his straps.....

Re: My Build #736338 08/19/06 09:33 PM Joined: Mar 2006 Posts: 165 Okaloosa County, FL T Tikitgvr OP Wheeler easiest way to move it...It will sit on there until I am ready to put it on the new frame...I am going to do all my axle work and mount them, the motor, tranny and tcase before I put it back on....that way its hella easier...

Found out that an XJ motor is set up alot different than a TJ. I have to get a different alternator bracket because it hits the frame as you can see in the pic.
