Hey thanks for the welcomes, plans for the build have changed as I gain more knowledge/perspective of what I want to accomplish. Now it looks like 4 or 5 inch lift and 33's and all necessary hardware... with axels, gears, lockers, long arms, etc happening hopefully during the summer.
Got 6+ feet (and still falling) of snow up here on donner summit right now!

So I finally got to modding this little guy, it's not so little anymore... I figured I would update my intro thread cause it's just pictures and not an actual build. Enjoy!
This is how I bought it:

After Rustys 4.5 and Duratrac 33's:

Putting it to work:

Thanks! When it stops snowing I'll trim up the fenders, the 33's make the 4.5inch lift look small. The low center of gravity look is awesome but I definitely need more tire clearance.
Jeepfreek... I had a white 95 XJ before this (and might be buying it back from the friend i sold it too who has his eye on a 4-runner) love the way the white looks out on the trail.
