1992 XJ Cherokee Laredo. 239k miles on body.

Few small surface rust spots on passenger doors. No other rust anywhere on jeep. Front fenders have been cut, rear openings have been opened up also. Few dents and scratches from trail use. Rockers have some dents. But overall very solid rust free body.

CURRENT NEEDS:
All interior panels are removed currently along with headliner. Was planning to install a full cage this winter. All panels are accounted for. And headliner board. If your interested in reinstalling them
Pass rear quarter panel and inner fender tub is cut out. I started to open up the fenders by cutting out the pinch welds for more up travel, but life has gotten in the way and I have not finished this.

Listed is all the build data I can remember. I have dates and mileage when all these mods where done since I have owned this jeep. Most every receipt and paper work on parts also. All labor and install done by myself.

POWERTRAIN

Also has brand new exhaust tucked up with a small glass pack and a flex joint at the crossover to prevent header cracking.

Brown dog poly motor mounts, new trans mount. Rear quarters also have a cut and fold done. New fuel pressure regulator. Header panel is not in great shape. New battery cables.

I’ll post more as I think of it.
