Default New guy from MI

Just thought I'd introduce my self. My name is Blake I just bought my second xj last week. Its a 2000 sport with a 2in lift. I bought it with 98k on the clock. I have no major plans for this one as of yet, I just plan to dd it and do some off roading when I get the chance.

How I got into jeeps My dad's owned jeeps on and off though out my child hood, and shortly after high school I bought my first xj from a former class mate for 350 bucks. I bought it with the intentions of it being a winter beater so I could store my 93 eclipse gsx. Long story short I was at a friend's house who had some quad trails but no quads to ride so we took the jeep out, and I've been hooked ever since.

On to the pics.

First the old jeep R.I.P.


The fake snorkel came courtesy of the previous owner.






The New jeep.





These are form the day I picked her up. I took the jack off and spare tire. I don't have a lock for the tire yet and I didn't like how high the jack sat up for every day use. I'm going to remove the light up top this spring its only stuck on with rtv.
