Welcome to Project: XJ

Welcome to Project: XJ; the first in the Project: Jeep series, where we'll restore, repair and modify various models and years of Jeep vehicles, and show you exactly how it's done.

Project: XJ is our 1989 Jeep Cherokee Limited. It's close to the 200,000 mile mark and has the following problems (that we know of):

• Doesn't like to start

• Runs but dies at stop signs and when slowing down

• Battery seems to be weak

• Hasn't had regular maintenance since owned

• Bad Shocks - They need to be replaced

• Needs alignment

• Blinkers - They don't work

• Driver's side Parking Light - doesn't work

• Dents, scratches and rust on the body

• Power Windows - Driver's side and back passenger's side don't work

• Power Locks - Not working at all

• Various cosmetic issues on the interior of the Jeep need to be repaired

• Stereo doesn't work

• All Speakers are blown

• No MoJeepin Decals!

These are just a few of the issues we've found so far. As we begin work on the XJ, we'll find other issues that need repair and you'll be able to see them taken care of by checking back here. Part one will start next week with something simple but important - husky liner installation!
