The whats next list grows longer every day, but the big stuff will be getting started on building an aluminum roof rack and moving the front hitch behind the bumper and start on a rear bumper .

And this weekend I had a ball busting time installing my lift

Been away for a while and my Jeeping has taken a back seat to family life work and helping repopulate the earth with my third kid who just turned 2 which sad to say has never taken a ride in my XJ, borderline neglect I know, but that is all starting to change, pushed (hasn't been started in year maybe more not sure) my poor jeep in the garage and have begun to get it all patched up and ready for some wheeln, got a bunch of doozy home brew mods that I hope turn out alright I've already started on that I will be posting about in the coming days and weeks !
