When a Jeep company that you order XJ items through sends you a t-shirt & sticker that says "Go Topless" and you get mad............the only way to go topless in an XJ is with a bunch of cutting, and that &#% isn't going to happen........

Remember my advice? Lol... But seriously, you are a brave man. When you get done you will have one hell of a sense of accomplishment and some killer Jeep memories.

ARGH so it's not just me then?? Man lol this thread has helped me out a lot. Though I think the brakes or some bearings on the left of my C8.25 need some love anyway.

I guess YKYDAXJ when realizing you're not alone is almost as good as getting it fixed
