JEEP HISTORY
Grand Cherokee Laredo 1st Jeep. I got my
wife a new car so the Jeep is not the new
car anymore. Time to make some changes!!!
I am new to modifications. I have been
searching around and got some great ideas,
thanks to all of you! I am not a mechanic
by any stretch of the imagination. I want
my jeep mods to become sort of my hobby.
I am constantly working and I need a
"new thing"! any ideas,
suggestions, etc please feel free to reach
out. I am going to need all of the help I
can get.

I had it all planned out!
Lift kit in the morning and new tires in the afternoon. Sounds simple enough right?
Think again!!!

1st incident: so I go and get a 2" BDS lift kit installed on my 2001 Grand Cherokee. It was supposed to be a few hour deal. well it turns out that one of my rear shock seats brakes. so they had to order one from the dealer. that delayed me getting the jeep back 1 whole day. so what turned out to be a few hour project turned into a 2 day ordeal.

2nd incident: So I got the jeep back last night. I take it to the goodyear dealer to get new (larger) tires installed becuase of the lift kit. after a few minutes of sizing up the various tires checking for clearance etc. we finally got the right size (I hope!) But in the meanwhile the guy says I need new brakes. OK these tings happen. Then he turns around and tells me my rear axel is leaking. So what I wanted to be just getting new tires turned into them ripping my rear end completely off and repacking the bearings.

Once again a small project that turned into an ordeal. Starting to see the pattern yet?
I know things happen. I understand that! but come on! Give me a break! LOL!!!!!

Anyway that is just my little R&R. Thanks for listening!

Hey its Brenton (03wjeep), thanks for the add. I'm not gonna pretend to be an expert or anything, but if you have a questions about any mod ideas I might be able to help you out. At the very least I have found a few websites for various WJ add-ons; whether it be for armor, lifts, wheel/tires, or performance. You might be surprised at how hard it is to find stuff for this generation of Grand Cherokee.
