see that's why I was wary on removing the front because it's my DD but I wasn't sure if the risks of rolling that I hear are true

Remove the rear for your driving. Leave the front for everyone else in this crazy world

dont have time to deal with the stuck NSS, since the XJ is getting picked up by a car carrier for our cross country move.

something something necessity something something innovation.

What did you do to your Cherokee today?-fvank3p.jpg

So here's what I did with my XJ on Monday Feb 2 2015 6+ inches of powder snow. Sorry for the shaky camera and the finger in the way, but the guy was free and willing to stand out in the cold

Today I got some more goodies.

My LED rock light kits came today:



And so did my 4-AWG wiring kit from 5-90 for my 136-amp alternator:



And I just finished installing them tonight:



For those that don't know Jon Kelley (5-90) he's an amazing guy with great electrical knowledge. I talked to him about all of my concerns and he answered all of my questions thoroughly..

The quality of his cables is top-notch and better than what you'll find at the store. I highly recommend his wiring kits if you ever do a Dodge Durango alternator like I did.
