buy at autozone a tow bar
i love it because i can use both xj´s at same time.
BUT when driving it,
it felt very unsafe so i think its not a good idea to tow in highway the green xj with the red one.
why?? because the green one its heavier compared to the red one that is almost stock and have the worst breaks ever.

hey, I'm lovin your jeep build, thats an amazing xj. One question though where did you find those RC lower control arms that are curved liked that. I have a 4.5 on my xj and thought they might help the ride quality.

well these LCA´s came on a RC 4.5lift i bought a year ago for the red xj.
i bought them here http://www.roughcountry.com/jeep_xj_4.html
and made them greasable a month ago. they are great i can really feel the diference between the ranchos that are made for 3" lift and this for 4.5".
they are longer so your differential will move a bit to the front that is great.

first i wrapp the A/C condenser with some pipe wrapp isolation tape, then with gorila tape and then with aluminium tape.
and oooo lord it works
and i´m so happy

That type of tow bar is like towing a big trailer, you don't need to have anyone in the jeep steering it. It's the nature of the beast. Just take it slow and give your self room to slow down. Just rule of thumb, you don't want to tow over the vehicle max towing weight.

about the tow bar i´m really sad because it is impossible to reverse towing and making sharp turns . i just bought it to tow the green one when it stop working in the city
.
today add a maglight in the cargo area
& install (again)the bushwakers.
tomorroy i´ll take the cherokee to a the agency for the instalation of the SYE and to a machine shop the some parts of my rear shaft.
