Well I, changed my mind on the JCR sliders. Decided to add frame supports to my xj. And the JCR's were bolt on and not good to weld on. So I went with Lead Foots design. Josh the owner did a great job. I have to say I would recommend his work to everyone.
I had them line-x'ed as u can see the did the Job

Roof rack on and Line-x'ed
Put a 33 on the top. Didn't want to block the rear window. Also I think it looks better than being on the rear.
The build was done by Lead Foot. (Josh)

Always fun when when you get hooked on a new toy.
Hey what part of Ok are u from.
My Grandparents lived in a little town S.E OK. Named Warrika (sp) We always visited them when I was young. i went back a few years ago to travel back to the past. Nothing like what I remembered.
The only thing that stood out when i drove around the old area was everyone sits on the front porch and waves at thr friends. I think that part will never change. Not like Cal. Everyone is in a rush here. Alittle slower thr. Good times.

,oh that and the bump and grind
still had a business out there that I ran from here up til '08 when the economy out there dissolved.. grandma lived in Venice couple blks from the boardwalk... just not the same anymore, then again everything changes, so it seems.... seems out here I don't take life for granted, and you're right everyone (for the most part) are friendly and humble out here

Well got the outer build completed. Now it's time to do the gearing, Axel, and Lockers. Not a small job. It's taken a while to do the research and to ask questions to anyone I could. The biggest help was to just go out and Go Wheeling. To find out what I couldn't do and what I really wanted to Do. And Boy have I learned alot. Lol. Good times. Thought I would post a few pics of what My CalstateXj can do so far.

As we all know, when it comes to Our XJ's the build is never over. Lol
Just found a Diamond in the Rough. $350.00.. This Dana 44 came out of a 1989 Cherokee. ( so for my 2001 it will be a easy bolt in.) Had no Idea that they ever built a Cherokee's with a dana 44. From my research they came in 1987, 1988, 1989, and maybe 1990. It was an upgrade only for the one's that had a tow Package. Attached are a few pics.
Starting on my Build parts list. Will post asap.
