Used the 4wd for the first time in months!! Finally got the front axle swapped and geared to match the rear and it all works great as soon as I'm done with the break in I'm taking it out to get dirty!

Yeah just paint and attach to stock set up. Can't best the price. They take 6 weeks to make. He makes them per order and he's backed up.

I already hate blacked out lights for visibility reasons, but god that looks stupid on a white vehicle. Not trying to bust your bubble, just my opinion lol.

No offense taken. I did it on my first xj (forest green)and loved it. Wasn't sure if I'd like it on the white. I like the tail lights, but not too crazy about the fronts
