Looks great man. I actually almost got that jeep when I was shopping for a new XJ haha. I got that same lift with 35x12.50 BFG A/Ts. I have some fender triming to do so I can get more flex. I think I'm gonna extend my brake lines cause even with those lowering tabs the lift came with it's kind of sketch IMO.

Here is my thread if you wanna check it out: https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f46/99-...-87115/index3/

Thank you. And yeah we live just a few miles apart. What kind of winch are you gonna get? I was debating whether to try one of the RC ones cause the price is unbeatable but I'm worried it wouldn't take abuse like a warn does. I'm doing bumpers and sliders next on mine once I can save up a little more money. Yeah the snorkel was a boredom thing haha. Cost $25 so I did it.

Either the RC or a Mile Marker 8000 should do it..

The rails I bought off eBay along with the rear bumper from "Jeepbrookman". He's from Texas and I'm really pleased with his custom made bumpers and rails for what he charges for them. The front bumper I got from JD fabrications. You can buy off his website buy i purchased through EBay also.

Well of course this flagged me as something I might not wanna mess with. But I thought what the heck I'll go check it out. Well in my younger days I had owned a 1990 XJ so I knew a little about them. So after a test drive I realized what the guy meant when he said the transmission needed work. The motor mounts were bad. So I traded him a gun I owned. Guess what gun it was?It was a Desert Eagle hence the name Project "Deagle"!

What brush guard is that?
