I have way too much money and time into mine to let it go. I also told myself a while back, that I would not sell it ever, it will become a dedicated trail rig, tubed out and hacked up to pieces...my current suspension revamp is the 4th one that I know of, and I'll probably do it again...try something different each time...kinda wanna see how far I can take it.

I'm with you I also have a lot of time and money in mine but I'd sell it in a heart beat if someone offered me 12k I have about 6k in just mods on mine but I would put that 12k in my foxbody Mustang and build a trail xj with all the spare parts I've collected over the years

I bought a set of 6 ton jack stands and submitted a week off for the end of the month to install my bastard pack and work on the paint.

I love my XJ. A lot of time as well as money into it. Saved it from a ******* juggalo, had ICP stickers all over it when I bought it. Got it from a mom and pop car lot in Denver, and told them one condition of sale was to remove all the stickers before I even test drove it, LMAO...that guy hacked the crap out of it, some of which still needs to be dealt with. The electrical was a nightmare.
Well yeah... but you've already got your set up pretty well, AND soon-to-be long-armed... which is about where I'd like to be with mine...

...this is what my thinking is. 'Cause around here, I could get my hands on a really decent one for about 2500-3000 and then put the rest of that into building it up.

Painted the front bumper, but now it's too clean for the rest of the jeep.
