The fiberglass under pinning board for the headliner is a hard thing to find intact. so if you are tearing the interior out you can probably sell it to someone local, as they are too fragile to ship. The seats, except the drivers one can be removed too, along with the carpets.

the only thing I can do in it is play in my father in laws back yard in the country.
there is a creek, and some fallen trees and that's about it.
I dont want to break my explorer hauling the jeep, so I wont have much to get into.

Roll cages can save you from a lot of pain. LOng story short I get ejected from a golf cart at speed. I ended up breaking a foot and my right leg. I have been down 9 weeks now, and got 6 more weeks before i can put any weight on my right leg. Which incidently has a 13cm piece of stainless as well as 5 screws. DId I mention the over 60 grand in hospital bills that my insurance had to kick out. I also lost about 20K in wagess by the time it is all said and done.


My cage only cost me 1500 in my rig.. and it was ready in a week

And plus if you do decide to chop it you'll need some extra support and a cage will give that to you if done right. It's in your best interest if you plan on kicking the s*** out of it.

X2 fi you plan to destrouy it anyway I would just strip it down like you said minus cuting the rear off and hold it to the floor til it just wont take anymore.just remember to buckle up and you probably wont get ejected like the guy in the golf cart. Ive seen plenty of xj's rolled and they can take it at least a couple times( on second thought a 5 point harness isnt a bad idea ). I hate to see a good jeep destroyed but If ithas no title and you are bent on doing it then I say GIVE IT HELL
