yeah sounds cool....
As far as plans for my XJ.. I'm thinking a 4.5 or 6 inch lift (not sure yet) I wanna run 30's with soft 8's.. I really dont want to have to change axles or anything like that or regear because im not very familiar with it..well if i did do that id deff. need help. i wanna throw some lights on there... and i want air lockers... I'll probably get the 4.5 lift with in a month or so though...so ya

Next closest is Rocks and Valleys ORV park in Harrison about 2 hours north, a much bigger park with trails from stock to modified. $20 bucks to get in, bumper mounted flag required. All you should need to run these trails is recovery points, a tow strap, a camera, and a good attitude. A CB radio is always a plus esp at events with a lot of people. You can have a blast even in a stock jeep, and if you get stuck someone will pull you out.

 Drive it there, wheel it and drive it home. If I had to trailer my XJ every time I wheeled, I would just sell it and build a buggy. Half the fun is playing "Whats that noise" on the way home.
