Cherokees and other SUV type jeeps are not Wranglers (which still use a frame I believe). The 4x4 system might be similar and of excellent quality but taking those things off-road is sure to cause problems. Any jolts or drops or bumps or obstacles WILL damage the body. Look inside your doors near the hinges, you just might notice some cracks or hairline fractures developing. Very common from the flexing and stretching of the unibody...without a frame to absorb and disperse the traumas endured off the beaten path.
Just food for thought.
