That was 12 years ago. Then you do something like... 302 Found

And end up with this.

No thread, most of the early photos aren't digital, and still need to be scanned in. We bought it new back in 99. One of my albums shows how it progressed some.

just looked at em, and thats one hell of a build. Eventually, Mine is about the height I want, just wana squeeze some 33"s under there, thatll be the next tires I buy and prob do a little trimming. maybe add spacers, but it worries me that it may not be the correct way to do it. I have 31 general at2, and they are bigger than any other 31 that I and my buddies have had for some reason. So i dont think 33s should be hard to fit

This is with a 3" aal kit from rough country and 33"s, took awhile to get used to driving it because the front rubbed if you turned to far. Lol. I never wheeled this setup, you can understand why.

No doubt. That's the main reason i went with the 31s again, I still do use it for camping spots and light trails but dont beat it in mud pits or anything.

Ummm close. Haha. They were for my ranger before I got rid of that and got the jeep. Those wheels and tires (235s) went on it before I left the lot. I used the stock rims and tires to sell a used one that needed tires while I worked at the dealer.

I've done the Harry's thing. I did the Harry's thing when only Hazleton existed and no entry fee either. Now that I'm older and can afford it, I don't mind letting them pull the parts for me during the winter. Plus Collis is only a 20 minute drive for me.

Hello to all the northern XJ lovers from sunny south florida.

Wife wants to go visit some friends in the poconos and I have never wheeled in that part of the country. Any good places to keep on the list?

Here is a picture of my rig:
