I was in a parking lot at the time - I'm glad no-one was around!

YKYDAXJW......you see other XJ's on the road with various mods and think....."Hey, I bet that would look GOOD on mine!" (this one will get you excited) or "It's a shame I can't afford to do that to mine!" (this one is just depressing)

Nothin' recently 
I got him my XJ's coil springs and four JK shocks so his XJ didn't look like a drag racer after he installed 3" leaf springs during his 8.25 swap

You know you drive an XJ when.....
You have a bad a$$ Challenger 6 speed boasting 400+ ft-lb of torque, capable of rocketing from 0-60 mph in less than 5 seconds flat just sitting in your driveway...yet you still find fun and joy in taking the old dirty XJ out for some fun

YKYDAXJW you go junkyarding and get very angry that all the XJs seem to have disappeared to replace by ZJs! And most of the V8 ones don't have any steering or even front axles... (one did have rear disk brakes AND still had wheels on it instead of the rotors sitting in the mud so I must go back)
YKYDAXJW at the junkyard you spot this 300 feet away. It was both exciting and sad - I haven't seen a real life MJ since I was like 12. Didn't know about that rear bumper.

Kidding, of course. It looks pretty cancerous. But those taillights go for a pretty penny on Craigslist (~$75-100/set), so you might wanna go back and make a quick buck. Came from factory with Torx screws, but most I've seen have been replaced with Phillips-head.
