The 98 Project
This is my 1st Jeep. I have been a muscle car guy for years and wanted to try something different. I picked this one up cheap, it had a broken valve spring. Got that all fixed and it runs great, just needs all of the exhaust system replaced.

I just had a bunch of parts delivered today ... rough country 4.5 X series lift, 4 new 15 x 8 steel wheels and a complete new exhaust system. I dropped the wheels off at the tire shop to have BFG KM2 33X12.5's put on ...

I decided to tear into the XJ tonight and see what else it needed. I pulled the whole front axle out so i could work on it at my height. wasn't a bad job , took about an hour and a half to remove. It's getting all new brake parts and new cross joints at the axles. The ball joints are all in great shape.

Hello fellas! Not sure if this is the right spot to ask but here it goes. Does anyone have any time with a set of POWERTRAX Right Lockers? I have a Chrysler 8.25 rear. I wanted to give these a try. http://www.quadratec.com/products/16104_110.htm . Manufacturer Part No: 1230. Any advice would be a great help.
