Default CTC XJ for Petersen's 4Wheel&Off-Road

So this an XJ we built for Petersen's 4Wheel&Off-Road back in April. October Issue has full article on the build but here is a few photos of the build
Rick Pewe and how the XJ looked when we started

First clean up the work

Motor mounts next

Next suspension



Then some trimming was needed


Then some body armor

Next lockers and some paint for looks




And then the finished product out at CTC

This is almost the idea for the build on my '00. I got one Spartan for free that was in a parts LP30 front axle. Plan is a 4.5" RE lift, and 32 or 33" tires. Lunchbox or another Spartan locker for the rear, then it should be ready to hot just about any trail. Great build for the magazine.

Plans are to turn it into the ultimate XJ 3 part build. What well spent money can do for your XJ.

I also installed these seats onto the original brackets but moved them down 1.5 inches and back 3 inches from stock.
