No real updates yet, leaving my current job and moving to a new company...

Found out the old company is giving me a decent severance payout...so ill have a few bucks to spend on this thing.

Found an XJ D44 locally...so im going to go pick that up.. 4.10 LSD d44.. Ill probably keep the 410s in and just clean it and paint it and try to find a 410 front 30

I actually see myself keeping this one. I have a thing for silver XJs, and this one is the cleanest XJ ive ever owned.

Doing little things first to keep me busy while slowly acquiring a large parts pile

If I keep it I will. Considering selling it and just doing a mild build on the 8.25.

It's the stupid rare factory xj 44

That's kinda the only reason I would keep it.
We will see. If it sells then I'll have more money to put towards more stuff. If not I'll have it for a project

Not that I ever broke a 8.25 shaft, but it's more cool.

Well, since you only want to do 33's, price out building each one and go with the cheapest.

Thoughts on me picking up some 16" TJ Rubi Moabs?

I can get them cheap..they have been sanded and are ready for paint..I would most likely go with a gunmetal grey color...

I just dont want to run cookie cutter 15" steelies..
