87' cherokee chief

I've got a cherokee chief and they seem to be the least common cherokee out there, I was wondering what this package had on it when it came from the factory, mine had a tire swing and the factory towing package which meant the d44... anything else?
thanks.
and btw I did search but didn't find anything at all.

Re: 87' cherokee chief

I like the stickers, the hood stripes, the blackout window trim. It just looks really good. And the earlier ones had the plaid interiors that was pretty cool.
