so after 4 months or arguing, haggling, bargaining, asking questions, reading hundreds of posts, messaging back & forth, buying parts, sending parts back, making phone calls, and the jeep arriving 3 weeks late...it's finally time to start modding....
MY 2017 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 5.7 LIMITED 4X4
parts list:
XO luxury wheels- Tokyo 22" x 9"
toyo proxes 285/40/22
magnaflow catback exhaust black
debadged
AFE CAI
AFE drop in filter
SRT rear springs
SRT rear sway bar
SRT rear links
black jeep tailgate badge
black grille trim rings
front grille surround-color matched
honeycomb grille-color matched
rear bumper step plate-color matched
low profile roof rails-color matched
front lower fascia color matched
window trim black vinyl
rear reflector black vinyl
fog light bezel trim black vinyl
mirror covers-color matched
door handle covers-color matched
black rear tail light bezels
weathertech mats all around
panel removal tools
so far, day 2, I did the debadging, exhaust, SRT rear springs, SRT rear swaybar, mats, AFE CAI & drop in filter, and switched out the rear jeep badge from chrome to black.
mounting the wheels tomorrow.
still waiting on the color matched parts to be finished.
so far, SRT rear swaybar, big difference. nice & tight. cant really tell on the rear drop with the SRT rear springs, it was dark when I left the shop. the only problem I have so far is the magnaflow exhaust and AFE CAI, they don't come anywhere close to the flowmaster exhaust & K&N CAI. it's almost as quiet as stock. sounds like crap. very disappointed. $1500 wasted. the flowmasters & K&N had a great deep sound that everyone could hear. I didn't buy this setup for performance, I bought it for the sound, and it has none. I will update the post as I get things done, the wheels, vinyl trim & the color matched parts.
