First off, NOTHING IS FOR SALE YET. I will be getting my website set up soon so that I can become a vendor, decided I may as well just go ahead and set up a website since I will be offering more products than I originally thought.

So, my question is:

What products for an XJ would you like to see that either aren't currently made, or are offered but ridiculously priced?

Tube doors are one of my planned products.

List is:

-Tube doors
-A-pillar light brackets
-bumpers
-tube flares
-1/4 panel armor
-taillight boxes
-sliders
-"stinger"/light bar for stock bumper

Those are what I have planned so far, I am open to suggestions

good one. I may build a tank skid/rear bumper combo as well...

I will say that one thing I will most likely not venture into is suspension. There is simply to much liability involved in doing suspension work. I WILL most likely be doing a high clearance transmission crossmember that will have several mount points and be plenty strong for the consumer to add whatever link mounts that they see fit.

I like the idea of the light bar for stock bumper.

What about replacement METAL door sill plates , possibly with 'Cherokee' cut or etched in them?

Here's an interesting albeit probably difficult idea....

-Replacement center console for 97+ ??
-Electrical upgrades such as better battery wiring kits / headlight harnesses, etc
-New transfer case linkages (a few are starting to offer these but not much market diversity)
