I do need to get some pics of my two XJ's and upload them. The 95 is two wheel drive 4dr plain but really clean. It runs super but doesn't shift properly, no slippage, so I offered $600. They haven't called back but it was late when I offered it and I thought that was a good offer.

Got her all cleaned up. No more awful salt and snow eating away at what is left of solid metal.


Also got some new shoes for her a few weeks ago. They perform really well in the snow and ice. They perform well on dry roads too. Not as off roady as my safari treks but it will be good for now

Not on but for, I bought a AMC tire carrier the other day and am working on making it mountable. No brace from PO so at the metal shop today I took some 16g steel I bought and made four sheets to layer up as a brace and I bought all new hardware and cleaned the threads up on the bolt/bolt hole I have to reuse.

I love my prothanes. I didn't use the bump stops I went with the prothane coil inserts. They perform knarly. I use chains as limit straps tho. Of course both these on my race XJ.

How much air gap are you running on the prothane coil inserts. I'll be getting them and 2" PAC Racing springs. Any pictures of your setup?
