I'll be back in an XJ soon enough though, so I'm not leaving CF. And Flip, it's for real this time, I won't be backing out like last time.
damn!!!!

Default Total noob here

We've owned this XJ for 8 yrs and wife used it as DD for most of that time. Just convinced her to hand it over so I could use it for commuting but also to convert it to a hunting rig. Love my F150 but the miles are piling up on it. '06 F-150 125k vs. '99 XJ 121k. Time to give it a break and realize my XJ's potential.
Right now "Red" is an OEM stocker but want to increase its capabilities. 2.5 to 3" lift, bigger wheels/tires, intake/exhaust upgrades etc.
Live in Converse, Tx outside San Antonio and would welcome advice on suspension upgrades and such. I'm not totally useless with a wrench but I'm clueless when it comes to lifts and susp. parts. I'm willing to learn if anyone with solid background in this is willing to teach. Thanks.

If your lookn for a pretty cheap lift that is just goin on some trails and pastures, rough country is pretty cheap. If you are going with a 3" lift I would say put some 33" mudders on it after cutting the fenders. If you look on craigslist a lot of times people going up in lifts will be getting rid of their old set ups. you can get them pretty cheap.
