Gives you a little more top end around 3000K nothing HUGE but definately noticable. Throttle response is better too. Gas milage........no clue....... It was worth it in my opinion.

I have a 01 XJ also and I was thinking about doing the same setup as you. Do you have ANY rubbing issues at all. Trying to figure out what the best wheel/tire setup to go with so I don't rub. Nice rig

I did when I had wrangler wheels on it (ravines) then I got some cragar soft 8's with 4" backspacing and that cured all off the rubbing at full lock. Plenty of clearance after that.

I finally remembered to snap a couple of pictures of the lug nuts I ordered from Quadratec a couple of weeks ago!!! I tried to get a picture of the whole Jeep in there but the color on these are so subtle that you wouldnt have been able to see them unless it was close up. Here are a couple from work today.....

Thanks bud!! Just ordered a SOLID diff cover yesterday direct from SOLID industries only $65 plus shipping, should be here soon. Going to get it powder coated red once it arrives. Im ordering my 1 ton steering kit and Long Arm kit, SYE, Rubicon Express rear leafs and boomerang shackles all for my jump up to 6.5" (all from Serious Offroad). Still need to track down my new rear driveshaft either Tom Woods or from a local custom shop here called Carolina Driveline they specialize in nothing but custom offroad driveshafts.

Oh and Im replacing all of my interior lights with LEDs this week as well!! STAY TUNED!!

Nice build man...I love the red/black look.

Do you think by chance you could grab some dimensions off your cb antenna mount? I'm going to make one but don't have any dimensions. If not, its all good
