Dam! That transformation is awesome. Keep up the great work man! Wish I lived by a beach

 

thanks man!

 

Those beach pics are sweet! build is lookin awesome so far!

 

Looks great man! A little bit of black paint / bedliner goes a LONG way for the appearance of the XJ. Looks clean!

 

broke it in right today... lil more than some beach poser shots. got a few things to do yet to it, but its driveable

pulls better than i thought it would too being nothing but BB and 245/75/16 mtr kevlars

 

where do u live

 

wilmington, NC

 

hey i love the look of your jeep. those rims on there they are 5x5 bolt correct? and the jeep has a 5x4.5 . i just wanted to know if this is right and did you have to get a wheel adapter/ spacer for them and what size tires do you have on there?

 

DUDE i live in southport lol. do you got to carolina beach any? we should wheel sometime

 

Your rig is incredible. Im in the very early stages of my build and your XJ is very inspiring. Would love to know how you got those wheels on.
I might have to jack your bed liner idea LOL. My moldings are pealing off so I decided to remove them altogether.

Thanks

 

gotta love Rubi Rims

 

I did some digging online and found that '97 Wranglers have the 5x 4.5 bolt pattern too. I found similar rims on www.quadratec.com the ones on the website are called Mamba Offroad Type MR-1 and come in three different finishes. 16x8" $139.99

 

Thanks

 

when you painted the rockers did you prep it at all or did you just paint over the original paint?

 

XJ looks great! Is that your SRT-4 Caliber?
