Don't forget tow straps (yes, several), a breaker bar (with cheater), and random repair materials such as duct tape, heavy gauge bailing wire, etc...


You know you drive an XJ when you have to warn passangers that you will take random and sudden "detours" to go through mud/climb a hill...

Best $25 bucks I've spent on my jeep, those things are good for their price.

You know you drive an XJ when you have to do a funny hop/jump to get out of it without getting mud all over your legs...

You know you drive an XJ when you constantly find yourself having to tell people "well...no, actually I can't get a body lift."

You know you need a lift when you do this on your first time off the road.
I climbed it easily in the bronco..
I was trying to climb it and it felt like I hit a small wall.
I should have taken a picture as it was sitting there with the fender and bumper pushed into the tire..
look at that poor drivers side bumper/lights. WOO!!!!

You know you drive an XJ when your drunken, non-licensed buddy calls you 8 times at 5:30 AM because he stole his step-dads Durango and got it stuck in a mud hole.
