Dude that XJ is freaking sick, I'm hoping to do something like that with my other Cherokee, 2000 2dr. I think a roof rack would look killer on that thing, awesome pics and great rig Thumbs up!!!

I had a roof rack on my TJ and I hated it. It made the jeep top heavy on the trails and it was really a pain in the (_|_) to load it up and then unload it each time. Plus it kept getting caught on low hanging trees at the wheelin spot where we usually go... that's why I'm not doing a roof rack on the XJ.

The guys found this huge hill with a bump at the top that just launched them into the air. They jumped it like 10 times, it was awesome. I was too scared to try it in the XJ. I didn't want to break anything. lol

Yeah, those air pics are hilarious! First guy is like "oh ****" and has a death grip on the wheel. Second guy is just cruisin like "yeah, I do this every day on my way to work". I would love to see that in person and can't believe they did it so many times and didn't destroy their suspension. Jeeps must be tougher than I think...

check it out, he's even got a cupholder with a plastic cup mounted right on the door frame...you know...for when he gets thirsty as he's launching 20 feed through the air... just another day hitting the jumps...
