1997 Jeep Cherokee Country

Purpose

I purchased my 1997 Jeep Cherokee Country in March of 2003. Because I use my XJ as both a daily-driver and weekend warrior, I have to compromise between making it the ultimate off-road vehicle and keeping it street savvy at the same time. My main focus will be engine tuning in order to juice as much power out of this vehicle as possible.

This site will serve as a log for my adventures both on and off road. All aftermarket modifications I do will be written up and posted for the world to view. Thanks for looking and Happy Jeeping!

Replaced the cap & rotor today, hopefully that will fix the ignition problems I've been having. I also ordered 4 12" red cold cathodes to put under the dash and seats. Even more red light! And as promised, pics of my painted tails. They look great, but I do have one issue. The backup lights are pretty much worthless. Enough to be legal, but, not very useful. If I had it to do over, I would have left the reverse light lenses clear and simply painted the turn signal lenses.

Been working on interior goodies lately. Installed Polk 6.5" coaxial speakers in the rear and I now have red interior lighting. I simply painted all the lenses with transparent red paint. This was also done on my tail lights a while back, I need to get pictures of that up. After taking my grandfather for a ride in it at night, his comment was, "Why, this thing lights up like a whore house!"
