theres a video of a guy who rolled his xj in the quarry up at rausch he had a roof rack and his spare up there. After seeing how little damage he got, I will never get rid of my roofrack and spare now lol

This is so true.
They work and look better. Ill try and find a pic with it trimmed and my bumper caps back on. Looked clean. Should have been done that way from jeep.
Plus no one ever notices, but I trimmed that grill out to increase airflow out here on 100+degree days. Looked a lot more agressive to me. Couldnt stop staring.
Would do double and triple takes walking up the driveway at night.
Looks great with the color match
Had off of work today. So what does a Jeep guy do? Mod something!
I trimmed off the front valance. Still trying to decide if I like it or not...[/QUOTE)
looks good like that also gives you a little better approach angle, once you get some bigger or more aggresive tires under ther, you will just stare at the front everytime you go by lol

I need a lift :/ Mine would stand out even more with a lift. I already have the oldest one around, haha. I haven't seen any older than mine around here. Usually 91 and newer. Although, I did see another limited with gold rims the other day in pen argyl. It was a primer grey color, but it didn't look like it was an original limited. And the guys in it looked like very lost illegals.

So I found me a cheap-ish MJ that I can halfway fix just by parts in my garage. Yay or nay?

I'm hoping to get decent mpg with a comanche if I decide to get one, so this is perfect. 4 banger 2 wheel drive 5 speed short bed. good amount of miles though :/

I only drive jeeps with 4.0s
Every other engine was deeply flawed IMHO.
Wish I had the money for this. nice 2 doors are rare out here. And its CHEAP.
Would buy in heart beat. Its got the AX 15 trans. Decent body. Lunar lander wheels.
Just like my second XJ only green.
