if this is a jeepspeed race then why isnt he running the required in-line six motor? one of the main jeepspeed rules is that you must run a in-line six in the 1700 class unless you're in the 3700 class which enables you to use any motor as long as it is of mopar chrysler make.
Jeepspeed Rule: 4.1.5.1 Restricted to original equipment engines supplied to the original Jeep model. Any year model engine is allowed as long as it was originally available in that specific Jeep model.
@slabynski1 ah. crappy video quality. didnt see that it was a GRAND cherokee. still, why does it not have the jeepspeed required number sticker kit? obviously its a 3700, but still they need to have the sticker kit.
@BJagHalo your a jack ass,the suspension on this jeep is whats required by jeepspeed rules. this jeep runs amazing. you probably laugh at class 11 vehicles also dont you?actually you most likely have no idea what class 11 is....but you are a jeep suspension expert though. you dick head.

@Rodrizona this is not a RC and no you will not take my trucks nor my guns away. and i haven't heard a animal a signal complaint about the trees and the land, nor will they ever.
@Rodrizona you stupid fucking hippie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! then you proply wouldnt like my vids then cause i rock crawl!!!!! and you can try to take my Jeep and my guns but u'll have to pry them from my cold fingers BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wrong. Jeepspeed has class 2 and 3. You can run ZJ and 4/6 with turbo or supercharger as well as V8. Learn yourself something useful before you open your pieholes.
Max engine size allowed for Jeepspeed is 4.0 bored .060 over. 4.0L were the more popular engine choice for XJs (Cherokees). .060 over makes the 4.0 a 4.7L. Of course you can use other engines since other Jeep types are allowed, but since this is a Cherokee it's probably a 4.x, likely bored over some.
Actually, a 4.7L engine is not only bored, but stroked as well. When you stroke an engine you increase the stroke, which is how far the piston travels in the cylinder (up and then down), which, increases the displacement. That grand cherokee probably had a V8 in it, that's what it sounded like anyway, and was probably the factory 5.2L. I don't know the jeep speed rules, but if 4.7L is the max, then that wasn't a jeep speed race, because there was definitely a V8 in that Grand.
There IS a 4.7L v8. It isn't a Jeepspeed race. The uploader probably called it that to get more views. What he probably means is that it's a Jeep driving at speed. Obviously a stroker has the stroke increased...otherwise it would be called a borer...which would sound kinda stupid. You can also have a stroker with no overbore. It would be a 4.5L and relatively low cost.
No..with no overbore it's a 4.5L and it's considered low-buck because you can use the stock pistons and because there is less machine work to be done.
The Hemi was only available in the WK platform. The ZJ platform only has the 4.0 as a base engine, 5.2 and the 5.9 Limited engines, in europe you can have a turbo diesel option too, but no Hemi in this ZJ platform
very nice footage! I just got an '97 2door xj and am turning it into a jeepspeed/baja type of rig but am stumped as far as what suspension system to run. what is installed on the jeep in the footage... I like it's high speed handling qualities.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
wrong...the oroginal hmmvv kills the jeep and most landrovers ride 10x as good as a jeep and still go just as well offroad...but at heart im a jeep guy so hellz yea jeep all the way :)
a stock jeep can do way more then a hmmvv hell even one of those compasses could do better because it doesnt have an 800 foot wheel base to get hung up on pebbles, and land rover is a pretty good offroad vehicle.
was anyone paying attention to a speedometer while taping this
