I haven't been on here in a while because I got a new phone and hadn't downloaded the app yet but here's a few updates since I've been gone
I added 2" spacers up front so I'm running 5" of lift in the front and 3" in the back
I also finished repainting my grandpas hi-lift and I made some mounts for it.
I got rear ended a few days ago and I have no damage to show for it at all but the good of the lady's Mercedes is totally jacked up!! She's gonna need a hood, passenger fender panel, headlight, and possibly part of her bumper! All I had to do was wipe her paint off my bumper and it was good as new! Haha

I've smashed my bumper in some pretty gnarly rock ledges. No damage done to mine other then a little paint scraped off. But my rigidco bumper is pretty damn beefy. It's held on by only 26 bolts.

Pulled an idiot out of a ditch after I reinstalled my headliner, rear bench seat, plastic trim, rear speakers and after finishing sanding down the cargo area for bedliner in the near future.
Guy was in a stock exploder, no recovery points at all! Another guy pulled up and whipped out his walmart tow strap and was like "wanna use this?" I couldn't help but to giggle. Pretty sure i pissed him off. Anywho, wrapped MY strap around his frame and gave it a tug. Guy in the exploder was turning his wheels the wrong way but even so, I pulled him right out. He was about 8" from his pass side door handle being in the mud if that gives you an idea. Win for the XJ.

Greased my steering wheel, perfectly adjusted my trackbar so my diff is centered, adjusted my steering wheel to center it, topped off my leaky front diff with gear oil, found my leaf eye bolt came a little loose so I torqued it back down.
Also went over all the bolts on the suspension with a torque wrench..figured its been a few weeks since installing the lift so it'd be a good idea to check. And checked all my fluids

I started my Remote "hand" throttle need to do some clean up still but I got it working. I can almost drive it with out pedal. But I kept it so it will only hit about 3k rpm so I won't be tempted to use on street.
