I do have a D35 lol going to start the swap tomorrow. I'm just pulling the fuses for the ABS for now, some day I'll remove it entirely

 

Do you need any help with the swap and lift?

 

What made you decide on the 8.25? I'm onto a D44 and a 8.25 but I'm not sure which I want. Maybe even a 8.8? I'm just so indecisive about it. I like the 8.25 a lot except for that lip on the bottom, that worries me a lot

 

44 and 8.8 are better but I got the 8.25 for a good deal and its a direct bolt in, 8.8 and any non xj-44 (which are rare) need parts welded on and I was lazy about it

 

any pics of xj after the lift?

 

X2

 

haven't gotten any yet, I'm slacking lol.

 

Here you guys go

 

Awesome!!

 

That thing is sweet

 

I got long arms!

 

looks good. you still have stock gears correct?

 

Yes. Its definitely down on power but honestly its no worse than my old TSLs even though these claws are heavier, taller, and wider. I suppose it helps having a little less rolling resistance, and being round.

 

Saw this in town the other day. I wonder who the "pro fabricator" who put together this amazingly clean, high clearance, and gorgeously welded bumper is

 

Would this be a good deal? I can get a 1987 jeep Wagoneer Cherokee xj with a 2.5L automatic transmission with 177k miles for $1,200. Good deal? I need it for light wheeling and travel back and fourth from Wyo to CO for work (245+ miles)
