What's the stats on your jeep? Year, lift, tires, armor? Why has it been towed away twice? What style of wheeling are you looking at doing, mud, rocks, or trails?

Wow!! Had to tow your girl? Maybe put her on a diet and make sure not to lift too high!!!

shes a 94 stocker. on 30s. and i was thinkin about my pick up. Lilly has on been towed once, and thats cause she would cut off after long trips in the middle of intersections haha but 800 bucks later the mechanic has givin me the impression its fixed.

and it looks like theres a skid plate wrapped around my gas tank. other than that i believe im armorless. and i was just thinking some trails in the woods not boggin or anything like that

Take it wheeling, but start out on something easy. Research on some offroad driving techniques before you take it out, the xj is plenty capable stock but you'll want to get some experience before you try anything two difficult. Check you gas tank skid plate and see if it's plastic, the steel ones came in a package which included a t-case skid and front end skid.

Yea you are good to go for trail running. I asked why it was towed to make sure you wouldn't be left stranded it you took her out. As the poster above me said, look up some tips and pointers for wheeling, and go have fun
