When this is how you open your hood

 

ROFL I got a good one like this just gotta wait for some light lol.

 

your back hatch area looks like a parts store with all your spares and tools rolling around...

 

When you're so ramped up about every little mod and upgrade that you can't wait to put it in your build thread on all the Jeep forums you belong to.

 

Ykydaxj when your g/f texts you at work to tell you tour quadratec catalogue came in and all you can think is "Jeep ****".

 

When your little niece thinks your jeep is a "tractor" lol.

 

When you have another dd that's good on gas and turbo charged and super fun but miss the jeep like crazy especially on nice sunny days.

 

When you see an XJ with the factory bumper tire carrier and become extremely excited/jealous

 

X2. I want one super bad

 

All I do is smile cuz I h

 

All I can do is smile cuz I have a stock tire carryer lol

 

I seen one at the junkyard and wanted it so bad but looked like it was missing pieces. Someone took the bumper. Is part of it on the bumper?

Ykydaxj when it seems quieter driving with your radio on, because it drowns out the noises.

 

Douns like mine

 

Love it

 

Theres a part that goes on the upper rear quarter panel passenger side, another that goes into the rear passenger bumper cap, and another in the middle of the bumper that sits in about a 1/4 of an inch. Also theres a bump stop on the hatch that braces an adjustable pin on the carrier. I have yet to see another xj with the stock tire carrier around my area.

Ykydaxj when people make jokes about how loud it squeals, and you just turn your stereo up and mouth "what?"
