Update:

Brand spankin' new floor!!! I had no choice going that direction as their was no floor left what-so-ever. It cost me a bit, but the guy did a good job. He even bed lined it for me.





P.S.: I'm going to buy some cheapo carpets today, but will get some husky liners very soon. I will also get some rubber plugs for the floor this week.

I had nothing left in the front, except under the shifter and the rear was just as bad. (worst where the muffler is) P.S.: Sorry I haven't answered you before, I didn't see your comment until today.

I gave my front bumper and sides 2 fresh coats of bedliner. I also did my tow hooks. The chrome on it was peeling and rusted over the winter. (I got them used) I like it better that way.

I wanted to keep it a secret until I get it put on, but I can't lol. I won't be doing the install, I'll let a good reputable shop do it. They know the XJ's inside and out. It's my friend's cousin that owns the shop. They build rock crawlers and have been in business for quite some time now.

Here's the website: http://www.pjf4x4.com/portal/

I'm sure some of you guys know them as they have a big rock crawling event every fall.

I can't wait to have it on!!! Should be around April.Then I'll need to get some tires. I'm still undecided on what to get. I wanted 33's, but the more I browse here, the more I lean towards the 31's for now. Cheaper and I know I can still have fun offroading. I'm on a tight budget right now (Unemployment) so that's why it takes me awhile to do that lift.

Alright, so, after almost 1 1/2 year, I'm finally getting that lift installed!! I have an appointment next Monday (June 13th) to get that done. I can't wait!! I will ask them to take my rear swaybar off too. I also ordered a pair of husky liners (front). They should be there when I go Monday. I will order quick disco's soon too.

Since I got a nice tax return, I decided to get a better CB radio so, I'm getting a brand new Cobra 25 WX NW ST with the custom antenna mount from 98PLumCrazy. I will buy a 5 feet fiberglass antenna with the wire as soon as I get the mount. I'm almost all set to do some nice offroading.


P.S.: I'm not going to PJF4X4 anymore as the last thing I heard, was that they didn't have a mechanic anymore since it changed owners. It sucks, but I found a good shop closer to my place, so we'll see.

I got a nice Father's Day gift from my wife. I'll let the pictures speaks for themselves.














I wanted to buy a roof basket for awhile now and couldn't find a used one. Well, my wife used some of her tax return money and bought me a brand new one. Some of you might think it's small, but I can buy an extension for it, so will do that eventually.

Thanks!! I'm pretty happy about it!! Rack should be full of stuff pretty soon. I wanna put a full size spare, shovel, hi-lift and a Jerry can. I installed it far back because I will eventually buy a light bar from JCR. I will install that in front of the rack.
