its amazing what alittle bit of lift will do. the jeep is sick bro

 

it does have tie in brackets as well as the bumper brackets. things a solid beefy bumper.

 

thanks man. alot of hard works gone into both building this and working for the money for the build. made alot of good friends and contacts with this jeep. idk where my life would be without it.

 

Fair warning, someone just texted me asking if I was at the holyoke mall and they wrote on the mud on my jeep. First thought was hope that wasnt Clayton cause in no where near there and our jeeps look similar so if it was your I'm sorry lol

 

haha thanks for the heads up man, thankfully it wasnt my jeep i havent rly wheeled it between not having the time and trying to get as much work done too it as possible. but i do work at the mall so odds are itll happened sooner or later ha. where you from bro?

 

Haha, work in the greenfield area live about 30 minutes away from there in Warwick (dont blame ya if you dont know it hell i didnt till i moved hear 2 years ago). Where abouts in the mall do you work?

If it wasnt your jeep and it wasnt mine then i wonder who else is rockin a white xj around here...

 

there are 2-3 more lifted white xjs in western ma actually. iv met a few of the kids who ride em n facebook friends with the others. ima server and bartender at ruby tuesdays at the mall. and i know exactly where greenfeild is a bit of a hike from me though. you got any worthy trails out there though?

 

Greenfield has practically nothing, Deerfield and hatfield have the best trails ma wise, my back yard is technically new hampshire so I tend to head that way. Although the one in Deerfield is still my favorite.

 

got a pic from tonight chillen wit Tomborsari and papaj talkin jeeps

 

we needa meet up and go out sometime man.

 

Definitely although my rig still has some unfinished projects in the works I'm not afraid to beat on her a little bit

 

mines the same way, im not looking too do anything crazy till spring when i can finish her up.

 

Little update for everyone, iv began my anual winter haul and have started stockpiling parts for the jeep too be installed in the spring. thus far the list includes:

JCR lower 1/4 panel guards.
TJ flares.

 

with your rc 4.5 lift did you need to run extended brake lines? also did you add the adjustable track bar and steering stabilizer as soon as you lifted it, or did you add them later on?

by the way awesome jeep, came along way from where you started

 

thanks man, yea both jeeps that i have built in this thread have been hard work n lots of time and money, but i wouldnt change that for the times n friends iv made are irreplaceable.

as for your questions with the 4.5" lift no i did not need too run extended brake lines.. i also didnt trim my fenders so my flex wasnt too insane as tires would hit my fenders.

i added both the steering stabalizer and trac bar withing a month of lifting it bc i had such insane death wobble i couldnt afford not too upgrade right away. a huge part of that tho was my tires being unbalanced but at that time i didnt know that so i may have been able too go longer without upgrading those parts. but when it comes too your steering nvr take the cheap route.
