Know what would make you swap, is if someone said I doubt you could drift that thing.

I'm already making a mental list of what I need and where I can get it for a reasonable price... Hahaha

jeep drifting was the first true drifting i had done. till then it was all fwd sedans.. but rwd/4wd drifting cant be beat..

this build continues to amaze me. diggin the lower dam, should help times a bit! cant wait to see what happens next. if you do a ax15 and a 4wd conversion idk what ill do.. probably something aneurysm related, no big deal.. keep up the good work man!

Curious...what's you mpg now that you are about 1/4 less the frontal area of a stock jeep? Maybe playing with too much boost is not a good way to measure but I was always curious if lowering the XJ really helped with highway mileage.
