Oh yeah, and ON TOPIC, I replaced my upper radiator hose on lunch today. Spent 4 hrs in the woods night wheeling Sat night in the snow. Got home, parked her. The next day the hose blew barely 2 mi from my house....Could have happened miles into the woods. At night. In a snowstorm.....But she waited till i had gotten home safe and only let go when i was local to home. THATS WHY I LOVE MY XJ! Had to walk 1.5 mi or so in a snowstorm to get home, but when i think of the hundreds, if not thousands, of miles I DIDNT have to walk in the snow because of my XJ, I'd say I'm still way ahead of the game.

Well, THERE'S your problem.....

dang. I first saw the picture, and was like I hope he's not doing that to people's yards, then I saw the suburban comment. for how small the XJs are, they do a great job at pulling big stuff out.

I ordered a set of Hella 500FF fogs along with a new Jeep hat and a little sunglasses holder thing that says Jeep for free shipping. Looking forward to getting that package. Hopefully I will install the lights next wednesday along with my tow hooks
No hahaha put it on the hitch and it was like it wasn't there

Took the front bumper end caps off, added the roof rack and tire carrier from CL, front and rear bumpers on the way, will remove the fenders and trim and paint the bottom half of the doors to match bumpers. Trimming soon

Nice. Still gotta get mine. Going 4.88s, True Trac, Riddler Diff Cover, probably order brackets from ruffstuff. They got a nice double shear shock mount for our style mounts, looks cool.

I thought about u-bolt eliminators, but it already raises it a bit just from the axle tube size, I don't want more.
