my 97' Jeep Cherokee Sport lift
Yes, I have financial approval from 'purchasing and accounting' to lift the Jeep! COWABUNGA! I'm putting a 3.5" lift with the new Goodyear MTR's I just put on and if I have enough left over before Jeep Safari, Im putting a rear locker on as well. I'll post pics as soon as it's done

That's just awesome. I see alot of XJ's around and they do a pretty darn good job on the rocks.

a buddy of mine is gonna fab up some skid plates & stuff, at least that is what he says he's doing & we'll see if they make it on the rig by Moab - 4:10 gears, very good...the locker will be a must for the rear....stoked, yeah, that best describes it

How about a pic showing the lift and custom rock sliders. I would love to see it. By the way I have a 90XJ and 83 CJ5.

My point is, I went with 4.10s on my XJ and it was not enough. Should have gone bigger. I have also herd to not bother changing gears if you are running the Dana 35 in the rear. Upgrade the diffs before you change the gears. The chrysler 8.25 is a pretty good diff and it came stock on later model XJs. I also understand that if you look hard you can find Dana 44s which will fit the XJ.
