I had a Libby before my Cherokee. You'd be surprised how capable they are with a 3" lift and 31's. The problem with me was the front flex (or lack thereof- rear flexed awesome...) really limited how much if the hard stuff you could do. I did 2 and 3 diamond trails fairly easy, and a few 4s with good spotting. Don't knock them till you try them- IMHO they look damn good lifted.

The CV's are now being classified as half shafts. That's a flaw to me. They need a joint! Not ***** and a cage!

you know you drive an xj when the high point of your day is finding this part at a junk yard not broken since you've been looking for one for two months.

Also when you actually wash it (beyond parking in the rain) and regret it so much you immediately go out to find some mud.

you know you drive an xj when you finally run into another xj lover outside of your pool store and talk with him for 45 minutes about gears, axels, and everything you've done to your rigs.

Funny part is that i'm in florida and he was from new york.

kinda made my day to finally find one.

You drive an XJ when you hate column shifters like the spawn of satan.
