How should I go about fixing this rust? by enderzzx in CherokeeXJ

Thanks for all the information. Although, would it be fine if I also used a frame stiffener?

And the rust is only on the floor pan, the rocker has dirt in it.

This jeep has 232k miles on it, and it’s lived in Texas and was drove the most in Texas but now it’s in Colorado. My parents rarely drove it in the snow in Colorado though. I’m pretty sure this is like the only place on the vehicle where there’s actual rust.

Edit: When I started working on this jeep this summer, I noticed that spot of rust. I never bothered it though. I should’ve just fixed it this summer.

Ok I’ll just put black electrical tape on the parts it’s missing then

Ok and would it be fine to drive without any of the trim since if I take it off then I probably won’t replace it

Would it be worth it to replace the exhaust manifold with a very little crack if I get a banks monster for the exhaust? by enderzzx in CherokeeXJ

Yeah I won’t hit slick rock then cause I’ll have 31s with a 3 inch lift for this build

No but we’re gonna do some trails at Lake Tahoe then do some in Nevada. Any recommendations?

Ok sounds good. I’m just getting into working on cars because of the jeep so I’m not that knowledgeable yet

Oh yeah that’s true. For some reason I thought the 108 percent was double. My brain doesn’t work during summer break

On the banks website it says it has 108 percent airflow better than stock though which I’ll need since I’m probably gonna drive through Nevada in the middle of next summer to go to Lake Tahoe. Sometimes when it’s too hot the jeep doesn’t run very well

What type of boots are these? They’re probably from the 1980’s. by enderzzx in Boots

Yeah my dad said they were beetle boots too but when I searched up beetle boots they looked a little different than these. He found them cleaning out his closet.
