Default 99 classic army xj build

This is my 8th xj and i thought why not share some pictures, i dont have any pictures of building it but i can pick up from where i left off today, i wanted a army jeep and found this one, the stock color is very cool i think thats why i got it, and after looking on google and other forums a lot of guys were wanting to see pictures of a xj that resembled a army jeep, well i think im off to a good start but thats just my thoughts the stock green helped me out a lot and i didn't want to spray paint the xj i got so here it is 99 xj classic 6.5 inch long arm rough country, 8.25 rear 29 spline shafts, locked with aussie locker, all leather arb snorkel, homemade roof rack with high lift spare and 50 cal amo boxes to hold straps, rear bumper made by me,diy beadlocks its sitting on 35s

That looks awesome! Nice job.

It would look good with the lower quarters bed lined......planning on doing the lower doors, etc also?

Did you put a star on the hood as well?

I thought the roof rack looked great on there. Oh well, the XJ still looks very nice. Anymore plans for it?
