So my headliner that I redid is sagging something fierce. I think not doing a great job on the front half and then getting soaked with the doors off ruined it. It's actually resting on my head when I'm in it. It's coming out today.

So its out! At least it won't be rubbing my head. Now I need to decide if I'm going to re redo my headliner or undercoat it.

I vote undercoat. You never have to worry about a headliner ever again if you undercoat it.

Such a nice day I had to take the dogs out. Even if it meant keeping the doors on.

Love the build man! The Jeep looks great. You make me tempted to go with a 4.5" lift instead of a 3". lol...

Also, I really dig the whole SSWAT/CERT thing. Kudos.

Dude just read the whole build! Love it man! Doing a great job! This was my old rig til I got rid of it I have a WJ now but am thinking of going back to an XJ. If I get another XJ I'm gonna go a similar route as my last one just finally do my bumpers and whatnot plus some goodies that only my future build thread will show

Thank bro!
You won't go wrong with the 4.5" But it is a bit more expensive than just the lift. You'll want bigger tires which means better rims. Relocating the trac bar will work but you should get an adjustable trac bar. SYE most likely. But it's totally worth it.
