Yeah, I might be changing those tail lights out to the same ones that the trail rig has. The JCR corner guards. Once I get another cherokee for the detail business, ill probably swap those over.
I love the build ! Id love to add a 2wd to my stable but they're tough to find in NY. I like everything you have done so far and I love the looks of those front fenders , Ive liked those on every xj ive seen them on i just wish they made a rear flare or something to match those to give the xj a little better flow.

How do you like the rustys bumper? I considered getting one of those from them since they are local.
Also..have you installed those shocks yet? They look bad ***..but wonder if they will compare to bilsteins.

I like the Rusty's bumper. Minus the fact that the skid plate that I bought for it, I had to drill the bolts myself, not a big deal just found it kind of strange.
Haven't done the shocks yet. I doubt they will be to bilstein standards but we will see.

I honestly was going to go with KING shocks but yeah, those were way out of my budget. On the JeepSpeed forum a few guys run the Rusty's shocks and say they are quiet good. So I figured I would give them a shot. We will see this summer though how good they are when I take the JeepSpeed to Silver Lake, Michigan.

I'm trying to finish it. 2 kids, the other Jeep, starting my own business, takes a lot of time out of this build, but I hope to have it wrapped up soon.
The radiator I got from radiators.com in the cherokee section.
