You are viewing my 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. It now has around 151k miles and still runs strong. Has the NP242 Transfer Case, I replaced the cv axles with U-joint axles. Has a 3.73 gear ratio and with dana 30 front axle and a dana 44a rear axle. I have taken a lot of time and money into the Jeep and plan to keep it for a long time. Please take the time to see all my pages as my Jeep grew. Take the time to look at its progress. Dont forget to sign my guestbook, post a comment and/or tell me what you think! Your input is based on the things that I do, so give me good advice on what I should do next.

Newest Mod: 5.9 Grille & Hood Vents

If you have any free time take a few minutes and check out my photography. For those of you who are into photography, I am shooting with a Nikon D40 with the stock 18-55mm lens. I will be upgrading lenses soon, hopefully to the Sigma 10-20 Wide angle, or the Sigma 18-50 2.8

Hi there. I'm fairly new to this site. I'm loving the community here, so I want to contribute to everyone this article I read that really changed my life financially. Last week I got a check for $900! Really, no joke, I thought I couldn't do it myself, but I did. And it really helped me out my family financially because i'm a stay at home mom. But here's the article I read: http://www.news4show.com/finance/google-hiring-you.html hopefully it works out for you too. Good luck and God bless!

glad to see that you finally surpassed me in the who has the most beautiful red grand cherokee contest. i really wanted to keep the jeep, but it was no longer practical, plus you couldnt beat the price that i got on this xterra. not to mention it has a 4wd system that jeeps wish they could have lol. keep checkin in on it. right now it has the stock 32s on it, but im going back to work next semester so by this time next year id like to have it on 5 total inches of lift and 35s under it. peace man
