Greetings from Bellingham, WA
Hi folks!
I have been running an XJ for the last 12 years or so, mostly as a pavement princess, but also around the farm as needed.
Most of the offroading I did was Mudding, which I used a big block equipped 3/4 ton to do. Everywhere to mud near home is closed now, so I had pretty well gotten out of the whole offroad scene...until a good friend picked up a modified XJ and got bit by the bug HARD.
I had quit driving the XJ and had it up for sale, (1996, 4.0, Auto, bone stock, 315,000 mile on it), He kept after me until I pulled it in the shop and started modifying it. Now, XJ's are sprouting behind the shop like weeds. There is a 2000, and a 1985 that have mysteriously appeared...and if I can get the time off after this next snow storm clears out, I may be picking up a lifted 89 to raid for parts! lol
I will post a build thread when I get a bit more done...and a bit more time! lol
If there is anyone else in Whatcom County, hit me up! Always nice to find someone to wheel with!
Cheers!
