Default XJ BUILD

That is a GREAT and CLEAN look with the new black --- I like it.
Mine (2000 XJ) is grey/silver and I am thinking of having some black
to trim it off. How did you lay on the bed liner for front and rockers ???

thanks, Randy

Thanks! It's just rattle can bedliner (Rustoleum). I figured this way I could touch it up whenever it needed it. But it you don't want the texture then I would suggest Duplicolor trim black(comes in a green can)... It's a spray bomb also but lays down smooth and holds up really well.

Thanks.
It's mounted with the HiLift "4XRAC" mounts. I felt around for the high parts of the seat frame back and drilled them. Used some bolts and lock nuts to bolt in place. The mounts allow me to run a padlock to prevent it from walking away! Also gives me a place to store my (CB) antenna when not in use. I will post some better pics soon.
Tires are 31x10.50/15 Mickey MTZ's on 15x8 flat D windows with 3.75" bs.

Hey Speed, how do you like your ACOS? I am thinking of doing the same but don't know much about them???
Here's a pic of the mounts.

Reeeally I'll have to pick those mounts up then, think my work sells em

And love em, my rear was like an inch high n didn't wanna replace my front springs bc of then being heavy duty so picked up the acos. Easy to install plus the integrated bumps tops are nice

But once they go on I would keep them lubed with pb or WD 40 so you can adjust after wards also once they go on getting them off probably isn't happening

Thanks, Speed!
I think those are on Santa's list now. And here is a better pic of the jack mounted. Wilson Antenna fits perfect across mounts as well.
