no idea who thought of doing a sheet metal headliner, i have a 90 grand wagoneer, with no regular headliner the roof gets so hot you can feel the heat radiating on your head when your in the Jeep, with a regular headliner back in the Jeep the heat is gone... Im so glad my 90 had all its interior intact minus missing a headliner.. I would hate to hunt down all the correct stuff, only issue mine had was lots of rust, but i can weld and i do stuff properly so that was less of a issue for me than finding parts
Aye brotha! Nice Chief! I recently picked up a 78 Chief myself. I would love some DIY videos and walkthroughs! I could use some guidance on my project!
Buddy: What’d you get? Him: SUV Buddy: Dude that’s lame, but bring it over for a look anyway. Him: Shows up with this. Buddy: I stand corrected, want a beer?
I've owned a 76 cherokee chief since 1991 and have done so many things to it. I'm looking forward to following your build. Have fun!
It’s all good 👍🏼
Sweet looking chief. I just bought a 79 myself. Can’t wait to dump a bunch of money I don’t have into it lol.
Right! I’ve been waiting 6 months got my new engine.... hopefully she will finally arrive soon!
Shiny grille and put front flares on. I like the stock color
Gladiator front grill would rock it 👍

Quadratrack should not have front locking hubs, I am pretty sure.

Also, you mentioned a digital gauge you found. Where'd you find that??
Was not clear to me, are the tires 35" in this video?
how you going to have time to edit videos now? :) paint it white and have it as a twin to the gladiator, which can tow this chief to the dunes
I’m glad you asked lol. I’m testing out fivver editors. Hopefully one of them will turn out good.
Just from the look of it I'm wondering if the rear axle is a narrow track 44. I dunno it is hard to tell
It sure does look like a narrow track in the rear. Should be more room between the spring perch and the hub.

How much did you pay for this bro?

Absolutely I’ll have an update video soon! The LS is in the jeep!
What color do you guys think we should paint it!?
@Leon Wilcox I did plan to try that first! Hopeful the shine will come back.
I really like red on these, it is an unusual color on a Chief. I think '79 was still firecracker red.
