I actually decided not to trim them, I figured it was pretty permanent and decided to just put the flares back on correctly

So a small update: before our first good snow of the season I decided to patch up some spots under my jeep where the undercoating had come off. The next day school was cancelled and my friend and I took the rigs out for a little ride. Building and upgrading is on hold for now, as I lost my job before thanksgiving, building will resume soon.

I know this is an old thread but I ran across this picture of the back of a Cherokee with mountains in the back. Maybe I'm crazy but down by the back up light the reflection looks like an eye and forehead of the incredible hulk lol. Anybody else see this?

Late on this but Im looking at doing some of the same to my XJ.. Got the same blue. Love the setup, just right for trail riding and a bit of mud, not too over the top. And that's just 235s with stock suspension?? Thinking about doing a 2" or 3" but I like the way this one looks.

What did you do for the black line at the bottom of the doors? Did you use the same paint on the doors, rockers, fenders and bumper? If so what kind cus it looks good

Like what you're doing. Here's my 97 with the same lift, if you're still going OME. I'm really happy with how it turned out. Be prepared to end up some vibes though.

Edit: Didn't realise this was an old thread. My bad!
