So..I might have sold out.

I got this sooooooo cheap. It needs a few little cosmetic things. I think I am going to be screwed on the steering wheel. It has the tan/black leather interior, and the tan sides of the steering wheel are wearing. It is going to be impossible to find one, so I might just put an all black one on for now.

Why not just refinish the wheel? Try leatherrenew.com. Nice looking car, by the way. And you didn't sell out - you moved up!

I don't know if leather renew will help this:

Congrats DJ, sorry to hear about the FC. I would still keep her though and slowly put her to where you want her. Spend less upgrading the 8 becuase she is a daily, and keep working on the 7. I've owned my Cherokee for 9 years now. For the first 7 years the only thing that I did was replace the stocker headunit. Then the cat brick broke loose, then the muffler started to leak, then the suspension started sagging. After the lift it alllllll went downhill and now I can't stop toying with her. Plans are now to re-do the axles with some ARB's, build some rock sliders, build front and rear bumpers, winchs blah blah blah. I need to stop upp'ing my daily, finish the FC (again) so I can start on the FD.

Hopefully with a few upgrades.


Since I need to replace the clutch, I will most likely put in new clutch hydros, an SS line. I hope to also get some chassis braces while it is in the air. Otherwise I would like to get the RB gauge kit and an Accessport.

Later on I hope to get a catback and maybe an intake. No real big performance plans until it needs an engine.

I would, without a doubt, add a lightweight flywheel to that list as well. Free up a bunch of ponies.

mehhhhh, I'm not sure about that. I like the 8, handles incredibly, but I wouldn't say it's an upgrade from a few FC's.

That's nothing. After you refinish those portions of the wheel they will look virtually like new. Much easier than reskinning the wheel, and the practice you get with the system will prepare you for eventually refinishing the seats when that becomes necessary.
