1990 2 door XJ "Mufasa"
Hi I just bought my second wheelin rig. (my first was a 81 Dodge Ram Charger)
This one is a 1990 2 door XJ. I shall name it "Mufasa" cuz right now it sounds like a lions roar and can be heard for miles around. Its practically bone stock besides an unknown Cold Air intake. and no muffler. I will be usin my rig as a semi DD. And I need some help. FIrst. i Need some new tires. hell i just need tires cuz my left rear one isd balder then an old man. I will post pics when i can. I was thinkof a RC 3" Suspension lift to start. then a magnaflow exhaust (i have someone who will sell one to me for like 15 bucks SCOOORE!). ANy ideas. I have a very low budget. But I have the patience to save it. I am NOT asking for sympathy parts. I amsimply statin what i need so that you all know what is coming first on the rig. Any ideas of some low budet yet decent A/T tires. or parts i can use to Make my Lion of a jeep reach its potential. I will be doing all the work myself. No shop will ever touch my jeep unless i supervise it. I will post pics as soon as i can. I already hooked my self up with some AUtolite(eww) Iridium sparkplugs. I work at a body repair shop so i have access to alot of epquipment. I prefer bolt on. ANy sugestions? |

I think you can get bfg k/o at for cheaper but they become slicks in mud ......

Hatch shocks are Shot. Off to the junkyard to pick some explorer ones. or i can just leave it like that. theres no back window so i can just grab what i need thru there. kinda chilly tho when I am with a girl back there.

Any idea where i can find em? and I need to find some lockers. i dont need a wheel hub snappin and then im out of a vehicle for the thirty mile drive to work. lol my recovery gear consists of a shovel and a box of wrenches and sockets. and no spare....

ANd im cuttin those fender flares off. already rubbed them once flippin a ***** on a two lane over a mound of dirt on top of a curb. ahaha some guy stopped as i was doin it. he either said "Learn to drive" or Nice car. I couldnt tell cuz i couldnt hear him over the exhaust. Anyone have that problem where the driver side winsheild wiper is too long and hits the edge of the window?
