Lookin good. How long did it take you?

BTW, just curious as to why you removed the side trim molding except for the front fender.

Well... It took me and two other guys a total of 22 hours over 2 days because we kept breaking bolts and having to run and get new ones and drilling and tapping said bolts etc... The trim was that way when I bought it, and I never got around to pulling the rest of it off lol.

very sharp looking XJ. I really like the white ones. I hope that driveway looks steeper than it actually is,...

Full leafs... I think AALs are a waste. Next is gonna be the steering box cuz it's going bad... After that, if I can get the money will be rhino liner. Then it will be done

Nice. Jeep looks great by the way. I think after the steering box and the liner you should do one more thing. Tint those windows. That would be sexy imo

Prolly stock or a durango box if I can find one for cheap enough. I don't know if I need the heavy duty box if I'm just gonna stick with 31s.
