It all started 2 years ago when i sold my 97 tj wanting a better dd and some a.c. purchased this 98 xj from my brother for 4grand with just over 100xxxmiles and balled tires and i wanted to make it a truck that i could go trail riding with ,pull my four wheelers boat go on the beach as well as a great dd and trip vehicle witch my tj was not so i needed a jeep that could do it all and my father and brother have had many xjs and zjs but i always liked the way the xjs looked and felt to drive well here is my never ending build thanks for putting up with my terrible spelling and punctuation and enjoy

 

this is the truck stock i drove it this way for more than a year

 

then i added a roof rack and ecco wheels and some new dulop 235 tires

 

and then did new exhaust header back cheapo high flow cat and turbo muffler quite high flow muffle and sound system and i changed all fluids on the truck to synthetic and amsoil oil changes then i replaced all u joints on the truck and new front wheel bearings and gave it a good cleaning

 

and the winter of 2010 we got a ton of snow here is some pics

 

jumping ahead to about six months ago i purchase a sky jacker bb with shocks and me and a friend put it on

 

i was not at all happy with my aal kit it started so sag in the back witch may have something to do with towing a bit so i ordered old-man emu 2.5 springs medium duty leafs and coils

 

i put in my ome springs jks quick discos and 30 mud tires and here is my jeep now still ticking at 140xxx mi and i changed my fog lights to hella 500 on the bumper and got rid of the roof rack
