Default 2wd owners check in!

Ok, I know 90% of the XJ owners on here have 4wd's. How many guys on here are like me and have a 2wd? Personally I'm never gonna lift my XJ, or put any kind of serious tires on it, although I've been eyeing a set of A/T's. Right now my jeep is my DD, and although I've made a few mods to it it's gonna stay relatively stock. Here's a pic of my ride. So far it's got the ford injector swap, 2.5" glasspack, intake silencer delete, and a pioneer deck.

this is my 98 2wd. 2in bb (s10 main, zj v8 coils) 235 BFG AT. it does pretty good offroad. havent been stuck in the mud (yet) and i go trail riding a few times a month. the only time i got stuck so far is back when my sway bar was still connected, i drove through a hole and my back tire just couldnt quite reach. but i slipped a tree brach in there and got out in no time.

next tax returns im ganna be getting a 4x4 xj, 4in lift and some 31s. and give the 2wd to the wife.




stuck (nice bb flex tho )

My 98 ain't bad for a 2wd of course I don't do any serious off roading with it, using for a daily driver at the moment.

Just cuz its 4x2 doesn't mean there isn't fun involved. 8) picked the misses up a 4sr 4x2 with 92k orig miles for a g and about 2 put her lift on with clear corners, new paint, som tint and nice wheels n tires. She drives 60+ miles a day, so that's where 4x2 came in as a big factor for us. Plus we have my 2dr on 33s with d44 lsd and 6.5 if we get an itch 2 go play. 8) srry, don't have pics, on my cell app. Later~Paul
