Welcome... beamers and road cars are fun but there's only so much you can do on pavement and in city limits lol.... if you'd the lift correctly you won't have a problem. DD 7.5" of lift.

I'm in the same boat as you. I havnt sold the beemer yet though. I have an e46 325xi touring. It's a bomb. I'm still thinking of how I'm going to take hairpins and pass on the highway ...
But I want a jeep. Enough said .
And by the way, nice xj! I'm following this one.

tsk tsk....the whole reason behind getting a jeep is to go beyond where other vehicles will take you...this means trying to beat it up. Trust me...that thing will last if you maintain it. ;D

Updates:
Wired Up Some Fog Lights.
Added Maglite Brackets.
Found A Fog Light / Rear Defrost Panel Cover
Almost Finished My Toggle Switch Panel, Finally Got My Lights From The UK. 10 Bucks
Shipped For 5 Green LED Switches.
Also I Found Somewhere to flex, so i flexed it as stock so i can see how much my lift that i'm getting soon helps the flex. a little comparasin test

The Silicone is drying now for the switches, have nothing to hook them up to yet and i will make a tutorial on how i did if anyone wants.
hopefully in the next few days i will get myself a power inverter atleast 1000 watts, minimum, have to check prices and brands, most of the stores around here carry PEAK, i've had bad experiances with their smaller ones so i'm unsure if i want to mount one in the Jeep
