SpankedYA!

I started on the laptop with an elaborate tube bumper. I built it on the truck. I mocked and tacked it all up. After I was done I thought it was too much, hung too low and I just didn't like it. It took all day to make. I took the saw to it. My wife thought I was crazy.

This is what I came up with, with the parts left over. Simple and light. Sorry for the blurry pics. The waterfall camera is ready for the trash. Its all 1.75x.120 HREW. The D ring plates and mount plates are 3/8.







Looky. I got a tire to hang on it. I had to use an engine hoist to lift the wheel into place so I could measure and tack the first tube. What a pain in the ***.




I think its done except for some finish work. I was going to do some sheet metal and some dimple dies but I think I like it simple.

Any big difference in the cherokee and the grand cherokee when it comes to parts or are they like hondas

Cherokee (XJ) is leaf sprung rear. The Grands have different ---- transfer cases depending on the year and such. I would stick with an XJ. They can be had for next to nothing.
