I am offended.



Just kidding. You're welcome here. Stay away from the Facebook groups and you'll be just fine!

I wouldn't consider anything a mall crawler if it gets taken off road once in a while.

Thus far I have purchased an sye and cv shaft... choosing to spread out purchases and wanting to make sure I have these already. I suspect I will finish obtaining all of the bits and pieces (lift components, speedo gear, wheels/tires, cat-back) by next spring... little by little. Just wanted to let everyone know I'm not flaking out

To me a mall crawler is a derogatory term. I'd be offended if some one said that about my jeep.

VERY nice. Thumbs up on the rig, it looks fantastic. I like that lift/tire combo.

My goal here on the forum is to be positive, learn a lot, and hopefully be able to contribute/help others where I can. I chose CF over other forums because it seemed very family-friendly with a generally positive and encouraging attitude from everyone. I love the outdoors/hunting/camping and doing night trail mtn biking but have no experience with trails in a vehicle (other than motorcycle).

Question: Is it offensive to the trail rig community to build up an xj in 'hopes' of growing in trail experience while the majority of the time it will be a dd? I certainly hope to keep the cherokee for many years to come and want to use it to take my wife/son to see more of God's creation in the wilderness, but most of the time it will be my work/grocery store transport.
Not sure if anyone has told you yet, but there is no shame in leaving it stock for a while. Just bought mine, and the price of parts is pretty expensive! Rome wasn't built in a day!

^Agreed. The patience to simply enjoy the jeep as is is certainly fruitful. As mentioned, I am choosing to spread out purchases to be a bit more economically appropriate. I noticed after having bought the sye/dc shaft that dpg offers a combo for a cheaper price (though maybe not by much after shipping/tax). I purchased the parts, separately, at a total of 475 after tax. There are quite possibly a handful of deals available when bought in conjunction at a cheaper rate but I didn't look.

Building an XJ is definitely a fine art. Planning, time, pressure, money, execution...in the end you might have a masterpiece!
