She is a mall crawler for now but a good looking one and I love it!
My grandfather left me this XJ when he passed away so I will keep it forever and make it my project and turn it into something he would love! I do have plans for a locker fairly soon and possibly a 4WD swap much further down the line.

Looking Good! I'm interested in the OME kit - which one did you go for and how do you like it?

Id say he got the 2.5 kit..but im not sure..if your wanting top quality go OME. Kinda pricey but cant be beaten. I also dont think they sell a kit for an xj other than the 2.5...they do make coils and leafs that are bigger than 2.5 but havent ever seen a kit.

Nice jeep but it looked better with the stock icon rims in my opinion. Love those limiteds!

How much lift did you gain? I'm looking at ome for my dd lift, down the road. I honestly don't want more than 3" preferably 2.5" on the nose I only wanna run 30x9.5 at tires. Also is the ride really that good?
