I am thinking about selling my xj. The reason why is because i have a 48 ****** im in the process of building and the xj is a distraction instead of workin on my flatty ive been wheelin and working on my xj so id like to sell it and dump the money into my flatty. My xj has a long list of crap ive done to it so read the whole thing if ur interested.
I cutt the back off and welded in a comanche cab. The back half is mostly tube but it is sheet metaled in. I built custum tube half doors that took me a boat load of hours to build and look sweet. I built custom 1x2 rectangle stock tube fenders for the front now i know what ur thinking those fenders must be gay..... Well their not they look really good and their sheeted. I built the front bumper out of 2x6 rectangle stock super thick looks awesome. It has toyota pickup buckett seats in the front that are really cumffy. Its got a brand new sony deck with an i pod jack and remote. Good working cb. Its got a t-max 9000 winch on the front all wired to the dash for convenience. Its got trail gear rock sliders and on board air that runs to the front and the rear.
Now on to the drive train. It still has the 4.oL in it but has a new water pump timing belt and a crane cam. I just putt ford 460 fuel injecters in it and a chip. The ac still works awesome and so does the heater. Its got the stock auto tranny and 231 case that work flawlessly. Last year i putt a 14 bolt full floater rear in with brand new brakes and 411 gears and a ford 1-ton low pinion 44 with the super thick axle tubes with a warn out power lock and 411 gears. I didnt like the big ford brake set up so i putt all chevy outers on it with warn hubs new bearings and calipers too. It has cross over steering with a bent metal customs steering arm. The front d-line is half xj and the other half chevy i use the chevy slip and splines because they are fine splined and tighter. The rear d-line is half stock xj d-line and half chevy with a conversion joint.
Now on to the suspension. I custom built a three link on the front with super thick chromo link material with trail gear creeper joints on the lower arms. The upper arm is a skyjacker long arm off a tj with the really good heims. It has 4 inch tera flex coils with 2 inch rugged ridge coil spacers. The geometry on the three link is **** perfect and works like a dream. Could use some limitting straps. I custom built a beefy crossmember that the link mounts are mounted to. The rear suspension is just stock xj springs with a couple leeves added and a custom ubolt eliminator i built myself that works sweet. I also plated the living **** out of the steering box mount.
It has some warn down but still very useable 35 15.5 tsls that are hott knifed they work great still. I built a spare tire carier out of a spare rotor and hub.
I really dont want to sell this thing but like i said its a distraction from my other project. This jeep runs awesome and wheels like a champ. It also drives down the road like an absolute dream at 70mph. Its not street legal and could never become street legal. Its full width 86 inches outside tire to outside tire. Id like to get 3,000$ for it which is a good deal for whats all done to it. You can call or text me at 253 508 4226 anytime.
