Default New Guy From Colorado Springs

Greetings XJ community! I've wanted an XJ for quite some time and finally sold a car last August that I used the cash from to buy and begin the build on my XJ. Picked up this one owner 00' with the NP231, Chrysler 8.25 and an extensive maintenance history as a base for my build. I'm learning a lot as I go and am trying to build this Jeep with the best bang for the buck parts. Keeping in mind that for now, it is a daily driver and I can't get too carried away...

I started with the Rough Country 4.5" lift w/ new rear leafs and a SYE. I have since added the Rubicon Express Drop Pitman Arm, Adjustable Trac Bar and Bracket. I'm waiting on my Core 4x4 Adjustable Control Arms so I can re-install my locally beefed up, rebuilt front driveline.

If anyone has experience with the Smittybilt XRC tire carrier bumper I'd appreciate the feedback as that may be my next purchase...

Cheers!

Welcome! I lived in the Springs for awhile. I hear Fargo's Pizza is still there? Loved that place. Been many years since I ate there, but they used to have a bunch of antique player pianos and nickelodeons. Another place that was good to eat was "The three thieves" steakhouse. Is it still there?
