I had a previous gen Fiesta and it was great. I drive a previous gen Panda right now and it's too small. But B-segment cars are the perfect size.

Depends on what you need the modifications for.

Anything regarding performance suspension, like new shocks, rollover bars, coilovers etc. You can make it short by lowering the car, but you can leave it at equal height and nobody can tell the difference except the driver

I'm buying a 2000 jeep Cherokee XJ and I plan on using it as a light overlanding rig, no crazy rock crawling, just over landing prepped for trails that will come my way. I'll be going through deserts and mountain trails mostly cause those are what's close

>4.0l straight 6
>119k miles
>owner treats it like his baby
>8.25 rear axle

I've fallen in love with jeeps ever since my dad got one, so sure they're not perfect and there are other better alternatives, but it's what I got, it makes me happy, and I'm gonna make it work.

I plan on putting either a 3" or a 3.5" lift. If I get the 3" I'll go with 30/9.50/15 BFG KO2, if I go with the 3.5" I'll get 31/10.50/15.

Anyone have any problems running a 3.5"? Any extra fabrication needed? If you've got an XJ what have you done to it and how did it go?

Also, I'm planning on welding up my own front and bumper, roof rack, and down the road replacing the front axle with a 44

I'd love to see your rigs, jeep or not

This is my best buddy's jeep.

>1988
>second owner

Previous owner bought it, drove it around and passed away. My buddy bought it with 48k miles on it. It's clean as fuck, but there were some problems with it sitting for so long, like a rusty fuel tank and whatnot.
