Lol nice. I've had my jeep for a year and a half now and its got no build thread or project name lol ..but the upgrades I've done to it were (in order)
Replaced seats, fixed my leaky windshield....pulled up carpet removed all padding then replaced floor pans.(I could Fred Flintstone the jeep if I needed to lol thats how bad it was). After all that brand new cooling system since it over heated like crazy. Once that was done built a home made cold air Intake. All new audio equipment, then brand new exhaust. Now im working on getting my 4x4 conversion. Then my 8in lift hd steering
And d60's to run 38's

damn! thats gonna be huge. you probably like DaveVmax's build a whole lot then huh haha. still savin up money? get to work on that conversion
see mines in decent shape. hinge broke off the driver door and a couple dents. might need a new bearing or belt. but thats pretty much it
no rust no mechanical or electrical issues.
and the fact that its only got 118k leaves so much room for potential over time

Lol the plans to get her up to 10-13inches (strict mud truck lol. Also wana swap in a 4bt Cummins )and yeah I got the idea from davevmax. And yeah lol trying to save up money little by little .and since that hinge broke off time to go doorless jk. Sounds like a well took care of xj. With only 118k...sounds like a clean ride for the most part.

DaveVmax has a crazy one. I'm gonna keep mine as a DD though. I'm more interested in crawling than mud anyway since I'm out here in CA
yeah shes in great shape. I was thinking about doing removable pins like the wrongler. might as well because the only wires going to the doors will be speakers
yeah I dont even think the guy knew how rare an xj with low miles was. I could probably fix it up and flip it if I decide I dont want it
