Looks great man! I'm getting ready to buy one to fix up and sell to fund my XJ. How did you fix the rear tailgate that wouldn't open? This one is stuck shut too.

its kinda hard to explain...i went and took the back panel off and on the inside connected to the lever is a bolt facing up, connected to the bolt was the unlock mechanism...all you need to do is tighten the nut on the bolt which makes the open mech tighter and there you go...once you take the back hatch off you will see...very easy once you look at it

umm,... i think you have your lower control arms for the front on upside down,.. or atleast the axle end, the zerg fitting shouldnt be pointing down. Looks like it will get ripped off hang down,...

After a little searching, per Roughcounty instructions,.. they are on upside down,...
