Finally... Finally own an XJ Woooooo...!
 

Hey everybody, new to the forum; but I've read a lot on here over the past couple of months. I'm very grateful for the knowledge passed around, it has helped me a whole bunch! Thank you everyone.

I finally got me an XJ, damn I've been wanting one since the early 90's.. Took long enough! haha. I've had it for about two months now, super fun to drive!

I look forward to engaging with you all on the forums.

Welcome! XJ's are extremely addicting.

What kind did you get?? And wheres the pics?!

Thanx LACK.... I already want to spend several thousand on it already... I don't think the wifey would like that too much right now... haha.

I got a 98. (Based on a lot of research I did.. What I was looking for..) Ima take some pics tomorrow. I'll post up! :)

Hey LACK.. I just looked at your pics you have up.. It looks like you put on frame stiffeners, replaced the rocker panels with a chunk of steel, and welded in the support to the uniframe rails.. Is that correct?

Super nice man, that is something I want to do as well... How do you like that set up??

Yeah thats what I've done so far along with a few other mods. It's made a huge difference in how my XJ drives and feels. Everything is a lot quieter and feels more solid.

Have a cav fab 3 link, and other suspension components on the way. Going to be running 35's at around 5.5 inches of lift. Check out my build thread if you want to see some of the stuff I've done.

Nice man! I will certainly check that out!! New to mechanics, so I might learn something!

Question??? Where do I find the build thread??

I go through a lot of the build threads to get ideas of what I want to do to my jeep.

I just found it right before you posted, thanks! Ima take a peak now. :)

Hey man... "tomorrow" was a long time ago... where's the pics?

:worthless:

Crap...
 

Yep, tomorrow was a long time ago........ :/ Danngit.. I knew I was forgetting something!! LoL Ima go take photos right now!

Pics
 

I think this worked?

Yup! Sure did! I like the paint, man... are those JK Wheels?

Thanx dude! :) I have no idea about those wheels... Bought the jeep with those on... They were gold too... eeeh.. just painted em. They will be gone within a couple months..

Nice XJ. Did you do the paint?
