"I think I'll be a clown when I get grown," said Dill. "Yes, sir, a clown.... There ain't one thing in this world I can do about folks except laugh, so I'm gonna join the circus and laugh my head off."
"You got it backwards, Dill," said Jem. "Clowns are sad, it's folks that laugh at them."
"Well, I'm gonna be a new kind of clown. I'm gonna stand in the middle of the ring and laugh at the folks."

I'm still deciding on final lift height, tire size, and axles. It's gonna be a while before I do it, but I'm split between:
D44 or 8.8 rear swap, 4.5" with 33x12.5s
or
Full width, 6" and 35s.
I'll probably be staying smaller cause most of the trails around here are tight, and I wouldn't need the extra height. Regardless, nowhres gave me a cable kit for the front axle, but I haven't installed it yet.
get a posi lock when you get a chance. That or get a solid axle.D44 or 8.8 rear swap, 4.5" with 33x12.5s

That book had an impact on my life at the time that I first read it, and that quote has always stuck with me. It's the way I look at the world, and now I use it as my handle for everything, especially forums and Xbox Live.
The XJ initially (most of the pre-lift pictures) had Wintermark tires from Kelly. Post-lift, I was running 33x12.5x15 Duratracs, and I loved them.

Went out this morning with my89xj, Pudgy Fingers, and a_shirey. Unfortunately, a_shirey had to leave without playing cause his friend is diabetic and forgot his insulin. We had a lot of fun, though. I lost my 4WD at the very beginning cause I went into a hole that swallows JKs on 35s. my89xj is a bad influence 
Trail head. You've probably seen it before if you've seen my other trail pictures on here.
