Well after selling off all my XJ's and moving across the entire country I'm living near some excellent wheeling here in my new home state of Oregon so I decided it was time to grab another XJ.....looked and looked for a while....all of them out here are pretty expensive or beat to crap. I finally found one...it's a 1997 2 door, 5 speed, 3.07's 8.25" rear 146K on the clock....immaculate inside, the exterior is a little rough the paint is fading on the roof and hood..typical

Anyway life is good and this is gonna be my dream XJ build...gonna be my most every day driver




Here's the only picture I have for now....I'll take more tomorrow.
it's on a 3" AAL RC lift....that's coming RIGHT the F off and it's sitting on 31's
Other than that it's pretty stock except for the stereo system...oh yea and she's got factory heated seats

So here's my master shopping list:

Lift:
6.5" Clayton long arm kit with Bilstien 5100's
Tom Woods shafts
HD Shackle Relocation
HD SYE

Axles:
Front G2 D44, ARB locker, 4.10 gears, 30 spline
Rear G2 Rock Jock D60, ARB locker (maybe Detroit...still on the fence), 4.10, 35 spline Disc brake upgrade

Steering:
Serious Offroad UTK steering kit
AGR HD Steering Box
HD Steering shaft
JCR steering box spacer and unibody tie ins

Bumpers/Armor
Front JCR Vanguard PreRunner Winch bumper w LED's
Rear JCR Vanguard/Adventure TC with hilift and rotopax mounts and LED's
JCR Classic sliders
JCR Tank skid


Engine:
Header, flowmaster cat back, TB spacer, injector upgrade, ARB safari snorkel

That's the main parts....I'm sure there are 100 small things I'm overlooking...cosmetic and such

I'm still undecided if I want to run 33" or 35" tires....I already have a brand new set of 33x12.5" Maxxis Bighorns on my ford ranger that just broke down

So yea....I should start buying the parts this coming week
