    Welcome! Sounds like you have not only a solid jeep team but a set of jeep projects that will be a good jeep build thread to follow.

    Hello Taylor, welcome from Oklahoma.
    That CJ5 sounds like a fun toy.

    It is with CJ5,broke the axles in it the 1st after the 6.0 swap was.Have that fixed now,has Currie front and rear axles in it now.The Grand Cherokee,going to be one and got lucky.Bought it with a noise in the engine caught in time,Two of the pistons had broken skirts.My husband and I do our own wrenching on them and he has a couple too.

    I still remember my 1st Jeep,a 1995 Cherokee.A couple teenage boys stolen it and took it for a joyride.It was trashed inside and out,insurance company totaled it in 2004.I was angry and these two boys were thinking it was funny what they did.

    What a terrible experience! Hope they got some time to think about it in the can. Just got to move forward in life as jeeps are replaceable.

    My wife and I lived in Blythe Georgia in 1989 for 9 months when I was stationed at Ft Gordon in Augusta ... Folks better peaches grow in the ditches there than we can get anywhere else. Deer used to come up in the mornings in our back woods and eat peaches off the tree
