Jeep Cherokee XJ Country 4.0 HO

The history of my '95 Jeep Cherokee XJ Country 4.0 HO

[jeep-steffen]

New U-Joints and Yoke installed. Front track bar adjusted for perfect wheel alignment. After all this was done, I spent two hours with excessive polishing.

As a result of the 3" lift, the front axle moved towards the vehicle centre which shortened the wheel base and had a negative impact on driving behaviour (and the look in general as well). So I installed adjustable upper and lower control arms from rubicon express (superflex system with ball joints).

As I am constantly greasing all running gear components including bushings and bolts, install was pretty easy. Nevertheless it took me three times of adjustments to gain the perfect length and position.

It's comforting to know that the kilometre reading just reached, isn't even half time for the AMC straight-6 engine.
