I drive my '89 XJ & '88 MJ daily. The MJ doesn't see as much winter use mainly because it's a 2WD. It does get out a fair bit though. Along with my LJ they're my only vehicles.

In the reply toolbar, look for the little picture icon next to the smiley face. Use that button to post pics. Can I ask how you tried to attach?

Had my Rusty's Off-road 4.5 in. lift kit installed along with 32x11.5x15 M/T Deegan 38's no trimming necessary!

My 99 Sport is my DD with 230k miles and all stock except lift, tires and rims. I am trying to build it up for overland excursions and it's taking a bit longer than i expected

Thought I'd show off my GF's daily now that it has freshened suspension (technically, it's still mine but she drives it way more than I do). Mostly city driving. 97 4.0 4X4 5sp with just 146k miles. Stock drivetrain with 3.07s and open diffs. Runs MINT.

About an inch and half of lift using Old Man Emu coils and Rancho leafs with Old Man Emu shocks all around. 235/75R15s to keep the 3.07s and GF happy (she demanded this not get lifted like my 99 on 33s haha). It's a very solid daily driver. These "Upcountry clones" are the way to go if you don't actually wheel that often. It drives so nice!

Here's my 2001 Limited with 86k on the clock. Never seen snow and I'm the proud second owner. Soon to be commanded by my son who is learning to drive now but is super responsible.

It's. so. beautiful! I'd honestly be afraid to own one that clean and low mileage.

And nice choice in tires!
