Default New to forum from Texas


Not new to Jeeps but new to the forum. We have a 2010 JKU, 1991 YJ and a 1997 2WD Cherokee Country. The XJ has been through (3) kids and is mine again. A few years back it started sagging and looking like a station wagon so my 21 y/o put a 4.5" Rusty's kit on it and the factory 2010 JKU wheels with Spidertrax adapters. Within the past few months it has been my DD. I had bought a set of Rubicon Hard Rock wheels/tires that I intended to use on my YJ but the XJ ended up needing tires so I have them on there now. It has 201K miles on it and is still pretty clean.

Welcome to the forum, Just joined a week ago myself.

Nice Rig. There is something about a clean white XJ that makes it difficult for me to avoid drooling .

Thanks, the white makes it look a lot cleaner than it is. There are a couple dings/dents but white is very forgiving.
