Just sold my wife's 2004 Grand Cherokee Laredo with the 4.7HO. It was setup as our expo rig. My Dad wanted to move on from his Ram and offered it to me well below book price. I am not really a fan of red but $20k for a truck with 19,*** miles is a damn good deal.

The plan is to do a leveling kit. Either the Rancho quick lift or the Bilstien struts. Get some aftermarket 20" wheels, with a all terrain tire, and some flares like the power wagon models use.


WJ expo rig.


New truck.

2011 Sport Quad Cab.





Hopefully it has enough power to tow my trail rig!

I also need to figure out why the heated steering wheel turns on and then shuts off about 5-10 seconds later, and the rear park assist does not work.

Drove 500 miles today and averaged about 17.3 mpg. I ordered some led pods and brackets for the stock fog light location. I also ordered up some Anzo projector headlamps. I'm hoping to de-badge next week sometime and ditch the bed tube bars.
