i need to figure out tow points for the front. when i got in my accident it crinkled the front of the frame(not far back enough to mess anything up) but its a crunched up mess. any suggestions on how to go about mounting some brackets to it?

nice looking xj. I recognize that yellow one from NAXJA. some of us work to feed our jeep addictions. The upcoming plans sound good. Why/what type of chop top are you thinking? Plans for a cage at that point?

thanks man. i work too just dont make enough right now to pay for all my needs/jeep needs. im wanting to chop the back off to make a cheromanche. im currently learning how to weld so that project will happen once i get comfortable enough to tackle it and make a cage.

Id try to find a used Trailer hitch and go to HF and but a D ring hitch. They are like 15 bucks.
You should post pics of your accident to show how far it has come haha.:cheers:

i picked up a roof rack and a 87 rust bucket comanche since i last posted. hoping to make the mj my daily driver and lift this one more. the mj needs floorboards, doors, and the gas tank relocated...all of which i hope to get done this winter because i think the xj is going to take a real beating from all the iowa salt with the snow.
