Well doing a bit of work to her today...trimming fenders, pulling front bumper and maybe building a new one, pulling the sway bars, and fixing all the loose things on it...headlights, fenders, and grill...o and maybe doing a little exhaust work.

you could also check out the Cragar V5's.. not too many people have those, I do, so im biased on suggestion. But I like them alot. I went that route cause everyone i see has D-windows or Soft 8's.

Ok so i got the 33's and a set of black aluminum wheels...where in ok shape...but i didn't want to put them on my xj being they where not the best shape and its my dd...so i stuffed them on the zj...and i cannot believe it, but they fit and fit real well...BFH came in handy....but very little to no rubbing...i'll try to post a pic here in a sec...it was dark out when i got them on so the pic is kinda crappy, i'll take a better one tomorrow...but it'll at least give you a taste.

Ok here it is.
