Finally tired of the OEM grandpa stance. Going to be installing a DPG 2.5" ultimate lift on the XJ. Stay tuned for updates.

 

I'm in love.

 

Thanks. It is really clean.

 

wow

 

X2!

Makes my 2dr 85 look like junk

 

Thanks. My XJ has its share of issues. Both window motors are toast and my sunroof leaks like a MFer. Just replaced a cracked head. The lift kit from DPG just showed up so cannot wait to tackle that this weekend.

 

WHERE IS THE LIKE BUTTON

This is the most amazing thing I have ever seen. I'm so excited to see what this becomes when Jeeps officially become "classic" cars :P

 

Pics can lie..........I'll take them at face value.

That said.........


What you have is a real jewel.
Hope you take your time and do it right.



Best to you.

 

BTW........


I little back story would be nice..........how did she survive in such condition?

 

She was in Cali for the majority of her life and from what i can tell that was with one owner. I purchased from a guy in Rhode Island who got her from the POs estate. I have 140k miles on her now and she is my DD. Been around cars all my life and worked for a large antique car restoration shop for 20+ years. No plans on tearing her up or making a trail rig. Just doing a simple 2.5 inch lift from DPG offroad.

 

Rocker Pic. Hows that for face value?

 

I did not mean to be insulting.....face value.

For nearly 2 years I drove the SE buying XJs for reasale, studied many a pic prior to the drive.
Nothing worse than driving 7-8 hours away only to find the XJ was not as presented in a pic.


Those finds are very few and far between, most guys here do not appreciate that and would think nothing of cutting those fenders.......that is what I was getting at.

 

No worries and i apologize for the passive aggressive response. In the middle of a 60+ hour work week and i am a bit salty at the moment. I wont be cutting on this car, just doing some mild improvements lift, tires and possibly brakes.

 

I wish my rockers were that good

Mine now has about a three inch hole right at the rear, but I know where it came from. On mine the roof leaks at the points where the roof rails mount and when snow sits on top and melts it floods the compartment under the back seat. The Original owner let it set for about 7 years so no telling how much water sat there But I believe I can fix it without too much trouble.

If mine looked as good as yours I would definitely not do anything more than a little lift. Mine I haven't decided if I will try to restore it to original, or make a light trail rig out of it since it will take about the same amount of money either way. I am kinda waiting to see how yours turns out before I jump in either way
