I generally find the people who drive these types of things to be assholes, but not everyone necessarily is I guess. Anyways the first and third pictures are good, especially the third.

I could say the same thing about people with sleek tinted window audis that weave in and out of traffic all day, but thanks.

every group has their ignorant stereotype.

Coolest Jeep I've seen in a while. Anything special under the hood, and any video footage? smile.gif

Thank you very much, nothing done under the hood, all mods of that nature are all driveline (transfercase, axle gear ratio, so on)

And actually yes, i have a lot of video of it smile.gif

eh, not really. some call it the miracle mod, others call it snake oil. opening up the intake and exhaust is the best thing on the 4.0; its a simple motor.

Please tell me that doesn't double as your daily?
mrmontez2000
Sure does. Why?

pretty sweet, I bet this thing rules off-road.
hehehe
I remember driving my dad's land rover off-road; it was real fun, but fixing that thing out-weighs the fun sad.gif

mileage? i've yet to hear claims on the tb spacer for that as well. with a throttle body injection motor, yeah, you're adding space to let the fuel atomize better, but with the MPI it really isnt doing anything. arguably, it increases the cubic inches on the intake manifold, but its barely measurable.

I'm adding a 63mm bored TB, new style intake manifold (longer, smoother, equal length runners), exhaust header, hi-flow cat and dynomax muffler (which i already have) with 2.5" pipe all the way to the muffler. that'll be as free-flowing as you can get, and as with any motor, making it breathe better not only adds power, but adds efficiency.

I also have a cowl intake setup which pulls air through the vent on the cowl through he firewall (which kills my mileage bc cold air = performance, warm air = mpg). with all this done I HOPE to be getting 20 mpg on the highway. I'm getting 17 now.

Keep in mind these things are as aerodynamic as a brick.

Thats awesome man. I've got a 87 Cherokee Laredo at the house waiting on some parts.
