Default JKU turned XJ Owner!

Hey everyone - I've been scouring the forums for the past few weeks while i installed my lift kit. Couldn't have done it without you guys. I got a new to me 2001 White XJ Sport. Bone stock. Sold my pretty heavily modded (and heavily TOO EXEPENSIVE TO MAINTAIN) Jeep JKU...

Just finished the lift kit. I went with the Rough Country 3" lift w/ full leaf packs and some 31" tires w/15s i got on sale for all 4 mounted balanced and shipped for under $950.

Going to install the Flat Fender Flares from Bushwacker here this weekend and i'll be up and running till I get some more parts!

Looking to do in the future:

- Steel Bumpers (Victory 4x4)
- SYE
- Custom Fabbed Tubular Rocker Panels (rock guards). Cut out the rusted rocker panels...
- Floor Pan replacements
- New Track bar, Tie rod, Steering Stabalizers..

I painted my LCAs and Coils from Rough Country white to match the XJ. Painted the inside fenders black for contrast. I'll post more pictures up in a build thread once I order the next set of Mods.

Just wanted to say hello!

Nice looking rig! I really like what you did with the paint in the fender well. I'm looking forward to seeing your build come along.
