Maine recently changed its tint law to 35% actually just fyi

 

Very well done.

 

broke a shock mount today


Time to weld it back on, shes not comming off now

 

Great look xj.. Looks really tall for 4.5


I just ordered the 6.5


I would cut those rear shock mounts off and weld some higher up. The only thing is you might need new shocks.

 

Yeah, I would like to do that but I would rather not have to buy new shocks. Maybe If I upgrade to bilstiens I will buy the same length shocks but have hoops running up through the floor. Im going to keep it conservative for now though

 

Picked up a nice rear bumper, has d ring tabs and a hitch, enough to make me happy



Next Im going to bedline the bottoms of the doors and the rocker panels, as well as the lower 1/4 panel that is no longer covered by the bumper covers.
Might be getting a gas tank skid too

 

Heres my updated list of things to do...

*Gas tank skid plate
*shackle relocation brackets
*3/4", or 1" coil spacer (depends on height from relocation brackets
*New rims and tires (black rock crawlers, general grabber at2)
*Front bumper with winch mount
*bushwacker flarers
*8.25 diff guard
*Bedline doors and floors (after por15 )
*new front u-joints

Those are all my plans for this summer/fall. Next summer, I plan to re-gear, with selectable lockers, and truss the axles, and upgrade the shafts to cromoly with better u-joints. I might look in to some rock sliders as well.

 

Got the new bumper on


poser shots

 

love the bumper amd the head lights ill have to invest in

 

Where did you get the bumper?

 

[QUOTE=BlackXJ;535501]Picked up a nice rear bumper, has d ring tabs and a hitch, enough to make me happy


dose that say 2.0L?

 

Got the bumper from someone I work with. Not sure who makes it, or if it was home made.

Why yes, it does say 2.0L.

 

Lovin the build man. I have the same lift ordered just waiting now. What's with the 2.0L?

 

Your going to be waiting a while....
lift performs great, your going to love it. My leaf springs are starting to fall apart, and a shock mount broke, but other than those tiny little things yeah its a good lift.

2.0 is just a joke.. came off my VW jetta. its got the 4.0 in it. Im actually looking for a fresh motor to put in it. the one in it now is alright but it is getting tired. Needs rings, and makes some weird noises.

 

Nice build. I just picked up a '92 4.0 and purchased the 6.5" rough country long arm with some 34s. Where did you get that bumper by the way?
