Thats right I finally did my SAS

1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited
4.5 Stroker conversion
swapped t-case to part time
ford 8.8 in rear
d30 in front
6.5 Rough Country lift
34x10.5 TSL
and a bunch of other goodes
Been working on it for a while and its ready to go

 

that thing is cool

 

Looks good and cool rig. Hows it on power with the stroker kit?

 

Its got *****, I was very inpmressed. I out ran my buddy with a 5.0 in his ranger. we are built almost identical. as far as gears tire size.

 

Sweet.
What is in the axles for gears and differentials?
Be easy on the front axle too, my friend use to break his d30 (mostly u-joints) on a regular basis.

 

not a fan of those style grand cherokee's usually but you have a very nice ride!

 

Looks fun man. Like brianjwilson said be careful with that d30, 34's and the power from the 4.5L

 

Gah I want it

 

Thanks for the comments guys. The d30 wont be to bad, when it breaks Ill go bigger I put new axles and all new ujoints for the front and rear driveshaft. Gears are 4:10's locked rear, open front. Havent been in th woods yet but Im sure it wont be bad. Ill get more pics once it stops raining.

 

holy puffy seats! looks good man..

 

i just passed one by my house with full width axles under it and maybe 35s. wish i had a picture. it was BAD ***. i always see it on a trailer though so its probly not a dd

 

Mines a DD about 90 miles a day.

 

 

Looks real good man, now you can ride in comfort while off-roading.

 

Did you do the stroker kit by yourself? Who did you use? I have a buddy building up an XJ with a blown motor, and he has been looking at one.

 

Nice, was kinda hoping that it was a Ranger though. Oh well, looks good.

 

I used Hesco, its basically a 4.5-almost 6, from what Ive read and looked at, it should be producing 269hp @ 4800rpm and 340lbft @ 2500rpm. Thats from ajeepthing and hesco.

 

Sick I did the same mod this month also... but yours is sick

I love mine, Ive always wanted a lifted GC, Im gunna do a longarm 8in with in a month or so, I want it bigger.
I think I caught the jeep thing.

 

6.5" on short arms?

generally unless you mud bigger isn't better imo. My buddy has claytons on his ZJ with a 3.5" lift and 32s. 8" is wayyy too tall on a grand.

 

Its gunna be a mall crawler for the next year or so, with minimal sense less trips into the woods. My buddy has an 8in long arm on his xj, the thing is sick.

 

check out mallcrawlin.com its pretty much all ZJ and WJ owners with a few oddballs like me tossed in

 

i ran 35" swampers on my yj d30 and 8.8 rear with an ox locker and a 380hp built 350 and had no problems...it wasnt until i lowered my ratio and went to 37's that i grenaded my front end...broke the gears. surprised how strong an 8.8 with superior super88 kit was


but nice zj...ive always liked those...btw i thought the 4.0 strokers were like 4.7L?

 

hey where do you go to get the long arms only? im runnin the same GC as you only a 93 with the stock v8 and a 3.5" lift but i have the 2" coil spacers in the barn and i wanted to long arm it b4 i through em on.

 

i know guys who run 35s with a stock 4.0 and break chromo 30 shafts left and right.. unless you do mud then i can see it survive
