Saw a cool looking XJ in front of my dad's house yesterday in White Settlement/Fort Worth. It was black, newer (97+) 4 door model with a good lift on it and a roof rack. Pretty much typical xj set up. Was just curious if it was anyone on here or not. It looked cool as hell.

On another note, if anyone has factory wheels or any kind of cherokee parts they are not wanting, or know of on the cheap, let me know. I got ahold of a cheap cherokee and am trying to rebuild it. Will have to hit the junkyards here soon so if ya'll know of a junkyard with a good amount of cherokees still in half decent shape, much appreciation if ya'll would let me know.

Check out www.row52.com for junkyards and their inventory. Not all of them are on there, but the ones that are keep their inventories pretty well updated and a lot of times there is even a picture of the actual vehicle.

The setup sounds cool, but that's a lot more than I'm wanting to spend.

Thanks for the link man, looks like I found some yards to hit! Hopefully I can track down whats wrong with my cheap-jeep and get it running and functioning right. Then I can hit the trails full blast since this one wont be my DD.

This was posted on the RTT facebook page today:
Calling all Treadnecks! We are making tremendous progress in putting together the Treadnecks Offroad ROCtober Fest Outdoor Music Festival and Party for October 3-6, 2013. Please mark your calendars and continue to check back over the next couple of weeks at our Rock Trails of Tolar Facebook page for updates. The newTreadnecks.com*website should be up and running with all the event details some time next week. This will include the music acts that will perform at the Quarry Rock Mainstage, pricing, events schedule, and maps for the facility and camping. Let all your friends know! There will be a 5 acre mud pit, several smaller 1-2 acre mud pits to play in, a 3 1/2 acre rock garden, and other over 1,200 camping sites available. From the flood of calls regarding the event from those that we have shared this with, we anticipate camping sites will fill up quickly so please make your reservations early to be assured the best selection of spaces. We are anticipating between 5,000 and 7,500 for this event. Our staff have been working tirelessly to bring everything together, and we know you won't be disappointed. Stay tuned!
