I've got the Rugby II.

That's awesome. I love the high impact stuff. Back when NEXTEL was a thing, I wanted the i560 really bad. Ended up working for a company that issued i305 units to all their technicians... I ran over one of them with the truck one time and you couldn't even tell.

You do some top notch work snowman. Liking the cb antenna mount and front hitch too. How do you power the winch to use on the rear?

If you look back through the thread I show how I run a cable to the back.

Well, priorities are changing in life as they often do and the XJ is finding itself living in the garage and not coming out very often. I've decided to see if I can sell it. I'm going to see if I can get $7K out of it or something close. Not in any huge rush to sell it but if I can get that out of it I'll let it go. I'm at the point in life where I could use the money for other things and in order to continue this build I'm going to need to invest more money I don't have. If anyone is interested send me a PM and we'll go from there.

It's been a fun journey, albeit an expensive one, but my XJ has been sold. Thank you all for all the great feedback. Hopefully when the kids start getting bigger I'll be able to afford to do another build. Probably won't be another XJ (I hate bumping my head on the roof) but maybe a WJ or something.

lol... WJ isn't too much different. XK (Commander) has a ton of headroom though.
