TheUltimateXJ

1999 Jeep Cherokee XJ Sport 4D

I purchased TheUltimateXJ as a mostly completed rock crawler build from @justawrenchin (Instagram) on Saturday August 31st, 2019. I purchased the Jeep sight unseen through Instagram and PayPal. I reviewed the pics on IG and also reviewed the project ultimate xj build thread he posted on cherokeeforum.com. I continually messaged this gentlemen on IG and FB. I chose to trust that this guy built the XJ right and he did not let me down. He is an honest and stand up guy who I am still friends with to this day. I am very happy with my purchase of this XJ and it has met all my expectations being my first XJ and my first Jeep. Since purchasing the Jeep I have replaced the stock antenna with a shorty, replaced both rear door actuators, replaced front passenger door/window control module, replaced the old Sony single din radio with a Kenwood Double Din stereo with Wireless Android Auto, and replaced all the speakers. Many upgrades are still on the list so stay tuned!
