hey thats the same dude.. i saw the white ZJ in the background of mine and then the XJ in the background of yours... must be nice to just sit around and build 4x4's all day... its kinda funny cause im actually thinking about chopping the top on my 2 door... but im not planning on welding a cab in... just gonna leave it open and keep by back seats... so there wont be any complaining about who rides in the front or back cause they both will be fun

The Hummer wheels look pretty good on the XJ. So many lug nuts, lol.

lol... check out my album... i got them on my 03 cummins... with the hummer 37x12.50r16.5 tires... had them sandblasted and powdercoated... been fighting with the outer lugs though cause i have the 8 outer lug wheels with radial tires... they are made for bias tires and im not running them things on the road... been figuring out my own way to make them work on the street... the stud just snaps and they just pop off going down the road... lol... ive got one wheel now where i punched out the studs and ran 1/2 in grade 8 bolts and modified the heads to fit... so far so good! probly do all the wheels like that now... save in tires... paid $375 for all 4 shipped from CA to GA with 80%... better then getting 37's for my old stock 17's... $1400 mounted and balanced... screw that... lol

That is the coolest xj chop that i have seen. The tube work and the welds are just phenomenal.

yeah looks clean as crap... most people dont bend unless they have to and just leave everything square and boxy...

This is one of the best ones I have seen, it has a removeable top and an awesome cage under it.

yeah ive seen another one like that... guy even put a winch in his attic to pick it up and lower it back down... nuts... to much money and time... wish i had both... lol

Guy does some beautiful welds, obviously an expert metalworker. But, there isn't much left of an XJ there with all the welded tubing and re-enforcements. With that type of skill he might as well just fabricate his own chassis from scratch.

Thats pretty much what he did in that second post... built a tubed TJ...
