Hi guys. Big thanks to all who followed " needing xj hospitality" it was a fun trip but now its time to get dirty. I'd like to start by saying I'm not a English major and I make many many spelling mistakes as well as grammar errors. Now that the legal jargon is out of the way.
My name is josh and my daughter's name is Makenzie " kenz" she is a big help and will be mentioned often. I live in white hall AR im a transplant from molalla OR. This is are second xj I will post pics of the first it was a black 96. I also have some parts left over from that build I will let ya know what I won't need and if anyone would like them maybe we can work somthing out.

 

 

96 when bought and picked up in etters PA

 

96 when sold.

 

I regretted selling it before I had finished signing the title over.

 

01 when bought and picked up in westfield Massachusetts.

 

The hood was vary bent up so a trip to the junk yard and 75 bucks got me a vary decent 89 xj hood after sanding I put it in primer and threw it on. Ill wait for paint when all body work is done.

 

 

 

I have a spare engine I picked up I will begin to tare it down in the next couple weeks and build a fresh replacement. Also have a transfercase that I will put the sye in so it can be waiting for when the lift goes on. I picked up a rough country 4 1/2 full leaf lift kit off craigslist for 200. So that will be used in conjugation with some other lift parts.

 

Got wheels and tires yesterday but I think I'm gonna go a different rought.

 

Anyone needing some 33 12.50 15 hit me up.

 

A bought a wrecked cherokee awhile back. It has a 29 spline 8 1/4 and a hp d30 so I will remove them and tare them apart for gearing and maybe a locker in the front.

 

Ok so got the trans and transfercase out of the red jeep and dropped the trans off at southern transmission a local shop. Ill get pics when I pick it up. Transfercase is torn apart and being hot tanked before reassemble and sye install. Picked a jeep for the body as well. got a 97 2wd so all these goodies will be going in it.

 

Extremely clean low mile 2wd that fell in my lap. It willl be the body of this build.
