I was invited by one of my buddies to go wheel on a trail he found behind his house...small trail, dirt road mostly, no rocks ...but it was still fun to go and have some fun either way. A bad part was that he has a 1998 exploder (stock), all wheel drive. Before we left for this "trail" as he called it, he bragged how his 5.0 302 could whoop my 4.0. I warned him that his exploder didn't have alot of ground clearance (he didn't listen to my advice) and ended up putting a dent in his rear bumper and breaking of the last 12 or inches of his exhaust pipe The pics aren't all that impressive, but it was a fun day. Got one of my buddy getting stuck because of his no ground clearance, lol...safe to say my XJ beat his exploder everyone of the 5 times we went. Just thought I'd share.

 

Fun Fun!

Oh, and at your friend.

 

Hahaha, yeah. I keep telling him to eother sell the exploder or trade it for a jeep. Lifts for jeeps are so much cheaper because of the solid axles....IFS doesn't show alot of flex, lol
