Hey everybody. How's it going?
My name is Daniel and I purchased my first XJ about a month ago. It is a 96 with a 97 front clip due to a front end accident.
It came with factory skids for the front and gas tank. the T-case one is missing but the crossmember has the rivet nuts in it.
overall i can't complain for the condition. Speedometer and odometer quit working shortly after getting it but its just a weekend/hunting vehicle for the most part so i will get to that when i can.
i'm excited for this new endeavor since i am used to little hot hatches. I race a gutted SVT Focus with full racing suspension and i daily drive a fiesta st.
so far, i have a pieced together lift.
skyjacker 3" coils up front that i got from the junk yard with 2" spacers
2" add a leaf in the rear with a 2" shackle.
going to redo the rear suspension since the D/S leaf is worn out.
going to redo the headliner and working on a set of half doors and upgrade the stereo a tad (nothing crazy)
eventually going to get some 33x12.5x15s for it
Out on some hunting property
