looks really good and very clean! wish mine was all still one color. I got alot of trail damage on my front and rear fenders so I herculined them.
Heres what it looks like now with 33 10.50s

 

you in virginia by any chance? lookin good so far though, i'll try to come up with some ideas for you.

 

If i am are you going to kill me?????? lol jk yea i am in VA i get licens in may but dont mean i dont wheel on my lil 9 acers its in the family wbu?

 

I'm a good ole Franklin County boy, I live just south of Roanoke. I've been workin and wheelin these thing since I was 11. I've got a red 96 Cherokee and a 88 Comanche. You need a hand wrenching or any used parts man get a hold of me. The only thing I haven't done to these bad boys is cage or put one tons underneath them, but that's coming real soon. Working on cars is what I'm all about man. Look up University of Northwestern Ohio, that's the college I'm about to graduate from for High Performance Automotive.

 

OOOk dang sweet alright i will keep it in mind maybe we can wheel a little when i get the licens, freand me?




ALSO i instaled the t case drop and NO MORE RATTLE i am so glad.next thing is to grind the sway downon the rear to keep it away from the new tires and after that shcoks then the bumper!

 

Dude...nice XJ. Do yourself a HUGE favor....take 10 minutes and remove the rear sway bar!!! I almost ate through a brand new set of tires in about 15 minutes. The smell of burning rubber filled my cab in about 10 minutes of driving. Being new to the XJ world, I was a lil nervous about removing it, but I have noticed NO difference in handling. It cost me a 500 bux to replace the two rear tires......but it worked out good cuz it gave me a reason to jump up to 31X10.50's after a lift. There is a little metal nub (on mine there was) on the rear sway that did a number on my tires. I'm glad I didn't learn the hard way at 65 mph.

But...good work on the XJ!!!

 

will removing the rear swaybar be ok?

 

Yes it will be fine! I removed mine last yeah and I drive over 100 miles round trip to work and back over mountains in WV and I drive mine like a stock car most of the time. Trust us all and remove it!! Just done fool with your front one unless your off road and you have disconnects.

 

Ok so some of you no that my rear sways were giving me some trob with my tires and i was going to take them off till a idea struck me itcame in the form of the word MOD IT so i went out there with a angel grinder and a jack and spun the tires off and grinded the he11 out of it now i have about 1inch of space between the tire and it.lot beter the only reson i didnt take it out is cuz the dad is convensed by the way i drive some one will be fliping me over sometime the week i get the licens so i will take pis and sho u what i did tommoro

SRY for spelling i not the smartest person lol but i no my way around the welding and mech arts

 

having rear leaf springs makes a rear sway bar literally useless. i dont know what da heck Chrysler was thinkin

 

Ok so i got my cammra back from sony! i took a bunch of pics so here are some. Some are progress some are random....

 

I cant get them up!i will keep trying

 

..................

are rocker pannels worth getting?

 

Did a little test ride with dad and my lab


thinking of making a rear tailightgard out of a grill peace (updates on that soon

Also I broke the bolts i the rear were the shock connected to the frame so i had to make new holes for beter bolts

 

thats a good idea on that grill light cover!
