Why the lights? You don't actually drive around with it attached do you?

I will be until I cut the stock 2 gauge power cables and attach some quick connects, LOL. They are back ordered. But no, they would be "OFF ROAD" lights...

Unless you "wheel" that thing on flat ground, you'll want to remove it until you get stuck. They are a decent tool sometimes, but the receiver mounted stuff removes what little approach angle a Cherokee has to begin with.

I don't have that issue unless I'm camping in the north Georgia mountains, when I am in south Georgia or central floriday, 15' of elevation is considered a mountain, LOL!!! But I know what you're saying, it really does cut down the angle of approach quite a bit.

I got a XD9000i, which was used once by the first owner, for basically about a hundred bucks in ammo in a trade, and put it on my truck. I considered selling my old, discontinued M9000, but for what I could get for it, I decided to buy the receiver and mount, a set of 130 watt lights and just stick it on the Jeep. I do take the Jeep up to the farm a lot, unless it's deer season and fish a lot of spots that can be sloppy. So I may get some use out of it...
