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?

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)
