did some clearance work in the wells and knocked down the pinch weld in the fender to get some more stuffage going on and some extra droop from the rear. nice thing is when flexed with wheels turned no more rubbing front or rear so far i get 11 inches up travel and little over 20 inches down. so looks like i should have a litlle more fun on rocks now .

also added shackle re-locators and some different springs in my front end that are not what they were supposed to be so i still have to go buy some springs ugh.... any how some pics --->

I disagree with your sig oxen. you dont have to change the running gear at all to wheel an xj. It just depends on what you want to do with it, as with every rig you want to wheel.

an xj with 31s a d30 and a d35 will go tons of places with little to no modding easily.

yes tons of basic places. an application certainly plays a role. i wanna put 38's under my rig and i don't thing my factory axles even with shafts will like that much.

nun the less there still hella cheap to: fix / build and there still fun. we can agree on that cant we
