after a 200$ estimate to repair my ripped drivers seat,i decided to try my skill at sewing.

dam good sewing skills if u ask me, nice jeep man.

THANKS ,2 hours later and some bloody finger tips,but it turned out ok for the 4$ i spent on needle and thread. I definitly got my 600$ worth(what i paid for jeep)

Looking very nice! Love that color - Waht are your long term plans?

195000 miles.bought from customer. He didnt want to invest $ for waterpump,fan clutch,and thermostat to see if it needed a head or not after he ran it hot. Gonna lift 3" ,31x10.5, roof rack,bumpers,and maybe some willys stars!

s10 bastards
 

anyone know if there is a write up on how to do s10 leaf spring swap?
or does anybody have pics?
Really nice jeep BTW, black wheels n green color go GREAT together!

Flat Black and Moss Green Pearl is the best color combo on an XJ. Then again I'm biased. Looks a lot like mine, nice jeep man.

thanks it my favorite combo too.its the first project ive had that i didnt want to change the color.as far as the bastard pack question the links below helped out alot but its not an exact science.be prepared to swap leaves in and out to get the lift you want.i got lucky on mine but went a little high and developed a driveline vibration.did a one inch transfer case drop and cured 90% of it.another 1/2 inch would cure it but ill wait till i get bumpers and rack on it.the extra weight should put it where it needs to be.
