The Jeep Guru

One of the things that first appealed to me about the Jeep Cherokee is that they are cheap to modify for off road use. I was a bit hesitant about whether I would enjoy off road driving so I started by building my Project Cheap Jeep Cherokee.

I found I really enjoyed off roading with my Cheap Jeep. At the time I was rally racing a Jeep Cherokee but the races on the east coast had all but disappeared. I then decided to convert the race car into a Cheap off road Jeep.

I started with a cheap lift kit from JCW. I got some cheap tires off an old F150 mudder truck. I scavenged as many parts as possible to make sure my off roader was a true Cheap Jeep Cherokee even if it did have a full racing roll cage and a 4.7L Stroker engine.

The recent cash for clunkers may have taken a few good cheap jeep project Cherokees off the road. However, some of these will find their way to lots like Pull a Part were we can get plenty of good parts for our Jeeps.

Searching ebay, there are always lots of cheap Jeeps available. See a sample of listings below:
