Im a newbie to the XJ. Just bought my 96 a few weeks ago. It is bone stock 5 speed with 170k. I have been reading several of your threads and have been absorbing as much as possible. I just wanted some input on the more vital mods and upgrades. Keeping budget in mind as well.
Thanks!

it depends what you want to do with the XJ; like what kind of wheeling, if it's gonna be a DD, etc. a lot of people will add recovery points and a couple skids and then build up the suspension.
