  • Project Silverstein

    So as many of you know I sold FIN*.

    I picked up a stock 2000 Cherokee in January 2013.

    The day i picked it up


    Specs as i bought it:

    4.0/aw4/231
    30/29 spline 8.25
    160k miles
    4 Bald-ass mismatched tires

    Drove it stock for a while... wheeled it stock.

    This is the result of that.



    Then decided to keep it relatively clean...





    After a while the supension was so saggy that my tires would rub on any pothole hit... so i put an upcountry suspension on it coupled with bilstien 4600's



    Having bought a house, I make trips back and forth to Lowes/Home Depot on the regular and I got tired of my jeep getting torn up with 2x4's and drywall so i bought a 4x6 utility trailer(look for a build thread on that in the future... think expedition trailer.)



    BUT... my jeep did not have a hitch so i bought a hidden hitch and some JCR nutstrips and went to install that. What i found is what sparred the next round of mods.



    So i drew up a rear cut and fold bumper in AutoCAD 2015



    Designed by M.U.D (Mayhem Unlimited Design)... Future company????

    Started making that bumper



    And have started making plans to make Silverstein a good DD and Expedition rig.

    Current specs are as follows:

    180k

    Fresh spicer balljoints
    Upcountry(ish) suspension
    V8 ZJ Front springs
    Crown HD rear leafs
    Bilstein 4600's
    JKS Track bar
    V8 ZJ front steering
    235/75/r15 Bridgestone Dueler Revo2 A/T's
    Dynamat(ish) sound insulation
    Repacement sony door speakers
    Hidden hitch
    Husky floor liners
    Dynomax Cat-back Exhaust


    Near Future plans:

    Finish rear bumper
    install Heated ZJ front seats and 60/40 leather rear seat.
    Fabricate Front bumper.
    Fabricate rear tire carrier
    Install JCR Rear Quarter guards
    Wheel easy trails and camp/exp as much as I can


    Far future plans:
    Purchase either Sports car (Miata/Scion FRS/Pontiac Solstice), Practical car (Subaru Impreza wagon, Saab 92-x, Audi A3 S-Line, Ford Focus ST.), or Crew Cab truck(Chevy Avalanche, F150, Silverado, etc.)

    Hybrid Exo-cage by M.U.D
    Make 1.5" lift 3"
    Coil Spacer in front
    JKS boomerang Shackle
    Either JKS control arms or box stock control arms
    33x10.50 BFG or Toyo Mt's
    4.88 gears
    Lunchbox locker in 8.25
    Selectable locker up front
    Rocker replacement due to doors being rusty
    Wheel and EXPLORE any trail i want to.

      I have a Miata. So busy this summer it never even had insurance put on it. It made it from the barn up to the house garage about 2 months ago so I could get all the fall equipment out of the barn and work on other things.
