Looks OK, apart from the tyres, which are probably not road legal. What engine and trans has it got?

4.2 straight six with a 4 speed not sure which flavour though. The tyres don't actually stick out that far but it does come with a brand new set of wide arches that I don't want to fit.
Needs a bit of cosmetic work really but overall I'm stoked.

That is the best engine for those, as stated before^^^^^^^. I would prefer an autobox, but that should be OK if you change the oil.
They are pretty good, doubt if you will get a problem with it.

That's my last one. That had a 5.9 v8 in it that was bomb proof. That's on 31's.
I prefer a manual though as autos were only 3 on the tree. I like 4 one the floor

My mate's Grand Cherokee has the 4.2 and auto, he has had it since new,about 30 years, and it has a galvanised chassis.View attachment 233227

He has other cars, so it has only done about 150k miles, but he has never had any serious issues with it, or changed anything except the tyres and fluids.
The 4.2 is well suited to LPG conversion if you want to save a bit of money.

I reckon if you put an avatar of the wing with an headlamp on your profile no one would care notice or think you’ve painted your series blue
