Ya looks great!
What do you mean by the "valance"? Is that the piece connecting the front side fenders from one side to the other
I think I'm gonna do it.

TMC

Yeah thats the one.


Thats just what that piece of plastic is called. Some people call it an air dam as well.

TMC

May I have the title of this thread changed to TMC's 91 2dr "Simple, Yet Useful" Build?

Thank you

TMC

Here is how it looks currently with the window tint off and a good **** of the newly lined lower body and flares:






I think it doesnt look to shabby

TMC

Thats odd.....


Why did it asterisk out the word v...i...e...w....?

GreenXJ98

That is weird man. The Jeep is looking good!

TMC

Thanks! I actually just finished reading your build lol. I love how yours is looking right now.....awesome!

I'm curious how those firestone winterforces do in the snow!

GreenXJ98

Any idea what suspension you want to put on there? I suggest Zone or Rusty's for the price and quality over Rough Country. I'm really happy with the feel of the leaf springs and coils I got from Rusty's off road.

GreenXJ98

Also, I don't have that front valance on my XJ either, and I love it that way. Good call on that man.

TMC

I actually only bought the Jeep about 5 weeks ago or so and the PO gave me two sets if wheels and tires with the Jeep. The black rims and tires are winter and the old silver ones have "summer" tires. Ill probably try to sell one of the sets after i pick up the other three silver ones from his shop. Im not sure how the y do in snow.

TMC

Yeah i definitely dont want RC, based off what Ive read. I mean, this is a budget build but I'd rather run what i got than get an RC. Ive thought of piecing together a lift with some RE springs and some other odds and ends.

Ive heard good things about rustys and zone though.

GreenXJ98

Yeah. Amazon has RE coil springs for pretty cheap. Weird thing is the 3.5 inch ones are more expensive than the 4.5 inch coils, lol.

GreenXJ98

The 4.5 inch ones:
The 3.5 inch ones:

TMC

Wow. Yeah they do. I just checked the links you sent me....that is funny how the 3.5's are more lol.
