that jeep looks ridiculous!, i wonder if it can even move!

well i know this isnt at intricate as all the other builds i see here with the lift kits and all, but its kind of what i wanna do with my jeep, i dont mind the exterior so much as the interior, i wanna make it like a mobile tech center build a custom car-puter etc..i also didnt know you can put a dual exhaust on the xj's

A mobile tech center might be cool if you do it right. What all are you planning on putting in there? I assume a lap top and GPS...whatelse?

As far as the dual exhaust. They make headers with 2 collectors, though most likely the one you posted just has it split after the muffler. If it is true duals it probably isnt providing much performance gain unless it is on a high HP modified engine. A stock/mild 4.0 will do just fine with a single free flow exhaust and 2.5" pipe.

i thought about the laptop, but it would take up more space then if i had it in the dash, the laptop would be more versatile though cause then i could remove it and use it out of the car aswell

Yall both need to open your eyes. the thing has NO SEATS, NO PLASTIC on the inside, a bullet hole in the VENT WINDOW, no marker light, and is rusting out on the rockers, it is a photoshop. If some one would have insulted a jeep that much they would have fix these things!!! or atleast the BULLET HOLE. Plus its not a Forty oz holding up the hood it's just a regular Bud light.

If you have the skills and the knowledge thats cool. Are you thinking of mounting it in the dash or in a customer center console or?

It was a joke about the 40 oz. I just have seen this pic A whole lot so each time I notice something different. i also dont care for any kind of wheels like that. The only car I have seen that looked good with rims like that(meaning BIG and UGLY) is a 75 Monte Carlo thats because they are 18's and the tire have some side wall.

i have dual exhaust. Flowmaster super 44 3" in 2.3" duals out. And it sounds sweet!!

with a split header it is gonna sound like two lawnmowers fighting eachother.

My next jeep will be like this as well. 2 or 4 wheel drive not particular. 4.7 stroker supercharged. 17 or 18 inch wheels, nice street tires. Nice non stock paint (probably antifreeze green) Nice leather interior etc.
