UGLY mod... But if done right?
Ok so I have saved a lot of weird jeep build pics. The majority I just laugh at, they typically go into the "jeep mod fails" category, and this one definitely fits! However, with proper implimentation could it work?
For clarification, I am not talking about that very weird roof... Thing? Not the weird doors... Talking about those front fenders! Anyone's thought on doing this properly?

That's kinda what I thought too lol... I seen this and thought that would be a cool alternative to a cowl intake and cutting fenders... Install a prefilter, inline k&n, and have really deep fender wells as well as covering the wheels

I'm going to guess he is a glass guy and someone pretty much gave him a rolled over XJ. The light came on and he said "I can make this work!". I am actually in the very same situation myself right now. So this and the external full roll cage concepts are starting to look real attractive to me right now. lol

I'm now thinking about going with an exocage in a 2" thickwall square tubing. I will indeed share when it gets to the point of project start.
I see a couple mistakes in how this tube exo was designed, There are thrust points not pushing against resistance points as there should be.
The mistakes I mentioned belonged on another thread... sorry.
