I have a Cherokee that's my daily driver/camping/expedition vehicle. I have another truck for hardcore off roading but I want to build up the jeep a little for a couple back woods excursions I have planned this summer.
I have a nice bumper on the front and a hitch on the back, 2" BB and 30 inch tires.
I'm going to add air shocks in the back to give it some more capacity. Swaybar dicos and rock sliders. And if I have the cash left I'm going to add a winch in the front and a lock rite in the rear.
This is my everyday car so I'm trying not to go to crazy but what else could I do that would make it more capable or reliable. Do you think I should worry about stiffening the uni-body or protecting the frame rails? I don't plan on doing anything to crazy but if I get stuck out in the middle of no where I might have to and I don't want to do any damage that can't be undone. I'd like to keep this vehicle for another 3 years so I don't want to develop cracks in the uni-body or anything.
On the other hand I'm trying to keep weight down to keep the gas mileage reasonable. Any thoughts?
Thanks
