David Swisher's XJ
Hello Four Corners,
I am looking for a fellow Jeeper. According to the insurance cards I found left in the XJ his name is Daron Swisher and his wife is Courtney. They are from the Fort Carson Colorado area. Part of my job is prepping cars for demolition and his particular XJ came to us today. I have permission from my employer to strip it for parts for my XJ, but I was hoping to find the original owner and talk to him about what he had put into it so I know what I'm looking at.
I understand not wanting to give someone else's personal information away so if you PM me and let me know that you know him I will send you my email address to pass along. I am including a picture of his XJ that I took today so that he can see and verify that I do have his Jeep.
It is a black 1989 Laredo 4 wheel drive. It has a 4.0 l with an aw4 and np242 transfer case. It looks like it's sitting on a 5 inch lift with 33s.

I can just picture the conversation:
you: hey David. Got your xj in for demolition today. Looks like it was a good jeep. What was done do it?
david: oh I had just put an 8.8 with a locker, sye, brand new t case, cowl intake, and a bunch of other goodies. Dammit!
you: oh that's awesome to know! I have an xj as well and my boss says I can take any parts i want off yours before we crush it.
David: wtf are you kidding me!!?? You called me to tell me your taking my stuff that I paid good money for, for free?
you: I thought you'd be happy to know that all that good stuff wasn't going to be crushed.
david: unfreaking believable...at least give me your credit card number or funnel me some money to my PayPal account!!
sorry man I had too I'm cracking up!

I know I know, that was an extreme version of the convo. I'm just saying it's funny to want to talk to a guy about the jeep to see what he had replaced or is somewhat new to make sure I grab it haha...and op I'm just poking fun, because I honest and truly think it's funny and I just try and imagine myself in situations like this

Yeah its mostly trashed. Interior is complete gut. I got the homemade bumper off it and probably gonna pull the 2" puck spacers off the front suspension. Dash is nicer than mine and mileage display is about the same miles as mine.
