Hi All, new guy to site, not to Jeeps. This is the 3rd jeep I have owned so far. I currently have a 2000 Jeep XJ...owned since Apr-2014.
Since buying I have done the following;
-New radiator (original leaked just after buying)
-New high-performance transmission cooler (with the radiator out, figured this was a good idea)
-Transmission serviced - pan dropped, new filter, gasket and fluid
-Rear end serviced (drained and re-lubed Valvoline gear lube)
-Valve cover gasket replaced
-New Kenwood radio and all new speakers (Chrysler factory radio was not working correctly...fade/balance stick shot, CD would not load)
-Rubicon Express 4.5" full leaf spring lift kit
-New tires: BF Goodrich KM2 Mud-terrain's (32x11.5x15)
-15" Alloy wheels (rhino-lined for offroad protection)
I can't wait to off-road and have some fun. Looking forward to learning a bunch from y'all!
I am thinking of putting a new water pump and thermostat on...as my Jeep has 166k on her and I'm fairly confident they are original parts.

Thanks for all the welcomes! I have tried uploading pictures but it keeps giving me an error. Not sure if the pics are too large or what...or maybe I have to be a member for a certain amount of time before I can upload.
