3 Attachment(s)
So i bought a 97 XJ about a month ago and while i'm not doing any major mods at the moment i do love to tinker so i fiugred i'd go ahead and start a build thread to keep track of what i do. It will be slow at first beacuse of funds but if i get the job i'm going for then i'll dd my mustang and the mods on the jeep will begin! :D
List of upgrades already installed: 4.5in lift w/ fixed lca's, adjustable track bar, 3in aal, 1.5in shackles, full coils black steelies w/ 31x10.50x15 nexen mt yakima roof rack 6000k hids in projectors front and rear bumpers and homebrew rock sliders What i'd like to add: Long arm kit 33's Either trim fenders with BW flat flares, trim with no flares, or lift another 2.5in to clear 33's 8.8 swap lockers removable door mod But anyways, here are some pics from the first few days after i bought it. |

Great looking Jeep! I like the wheels you have on there as well. Makes me want to get a bumper.

So I love the contrast that smoked lights give on red vehicles and i decided to smoke all the lenses on the jeep and have to say they turned out pretty good. I know some of you may not like this but hey, to each their own. This was my second go at smoking lights (did it to my laser red mustang as well). I called around and some places wanted upwards of $180 to do just the tails so I said to hell with that and did them myself :D
Here are some pics |

Not much new here but i did manage to get it stuck on my cousins farm while it was raining. slid down an off camber hill and it was so slick everytime i touched the gas i would spin and slide farther down. Also i redid my headliner in black, wrapped my visors in snow camo, and just painted my soundbar (no way i could have wrapped that myself without wrinkles haha)
I do have plans for the jeep though just a little short on cash right now. Sometime by this summer or winter i want to lift another 2in to 6.5, upgrade to long arms (serious offroad, rc, iro), and move up to 33 13.50 nitto mud grapplers. I'm trying to build the jeep i almost bought before this one. here's a pic |
wow that looks like a clean ride too. Why did you go with the red one?
