Thanks for the welcome guys, as for right now I'm back and forth between the Joliet area and Oak Park. I work out in Wood Dale and hope to be moving as far west from the city as possible. Thanks for the link to the IL section, I poke around in there now.

Anyone wanna help me with what suspension is on my XJ? To me it looks stock but the tires that were on it when I bought it were 245/75/16s and I thought for sure I would rub with a tire that size.
