Hello all! We're in Rockton, IL, and are in the process of jazz'n up a '99 XJ for our daughter. It started out as a bone stock Classic. It's our first one, so learning as we go. It just had the RE 3.5 lift installed, and is waiting for the IRO SYE and RE track bar to arrive so it can get back on the road. Auto Clinic in Rockford is doing the work. I trust Brad with all the work on my '76 Trans Am, so he was the natural choice. I know some of you will bristle at the fact that I'm paying someone else to do the work. Don't hate.

Haven't pulled the trigger on wheels & tires. After much thought and advice from good people on this site, we'll most likely go with 15x8 black steels (3.75 BS) with 31" MTZ's. By chance do any of you have a set of same-sized wheels/tires for sale?

Although it's for our daughter, it will be enjoyed by the family. Are there trails around here you all hit together every so often? We have a lot to learn, so hanging with folks like yourselves and your rigs will help us a lot.
