Nice work girl!!

Good luck for the rest.

 

Why not? Everyones doing it

 

lol I am definatly not everyone

 

definitely and permanent....

 

Sorry I live in MI so five out of the nine have to be cut out / drilled to finish my removal .

 

Ahh yes, that would be the case, however, mine lived in Oklahoma all its life, and recently brought it to Maryland, In OK, they dont use salt on the roads and there is no salt water, great for no rust!

 

Get a set of junkyard hinges to cut up and keep your stock ones on the shelf. That way you can throw your doors on and off a lot easier than having to bolt it back on. Besides the more you mess with the bolts the more a chance they will get messed up.

Just a suggestion.... looking good though.

 

i have to agree. although your xj is nice looking id get the spare hinges its fairly easy. how often do you plan on takin the doors off?

 

for the summer, and on for the winter

 

goodlooking jeep girl love the wheels, and tires. i'm buying a set next week. how do you like them on the blacktop?

 

the Firestone MT's are awesome on the trails, boy they suck on road during wet conditions

 

Lynne, have you siped them. When I buy mud tires, the first thing I do after getting them mounted is have them siped. They last longer and grip much better in all conditions. I gave my siped swampers to my son who tells me that even those do OK in snow and ice.

 

what's siped?

 

ha ha... Same here...

 

They put your tire in a machine that turns the tire while a spiral knife cuts the tread. The end result is a lot of little horizontal cuts in the lugs. When you put torque on the tire, like stopping or under acceleration, the little sections of tread rotate slightly presenting sharp edges to the surface and grip more. When in snow or ice, the sips open at the point of flex, just before the tread hits the surface and then close gripping a little snow with them. In soft fresh snow, you can actually see where they have done this. I will post a pic later today.
