Default XJ NAMED OLIVE

SO HELLO ALL!!! Well all in the NW chapter. I have wanted an XJ for years since i was a wee little $H!T, Growing up my parents told me i had to buy my first car BLAH BLAH BALH no gives two poops about my life story. Long of the short now that im 27 live on my own and have the money i can finally start my project!! Her name is Olive she ruff around the edges but straight as a whistle!

This was the day i got her


stock flexing




got bored made a bumper!!! Still a work in progress need to change the mount but thats the basic design









got a 4.5" RC lift had fun installing with a buddy had to get a few tools i was 100% sure i had, guess that's what i get for letting my friends use my shop.









had to check the flex not to bad could have gone more but i didnt have anyone to help me up the wall so i just went that far.




took her to the beach and went fishing great evening for that.






More to come but i think that's good enough for now.
