I bought this xj just about a year ago, it came with a 3 inch lift. I am a horrible mechanic and working on it scares the **** outta me sometimes, but I feel I get a little better each time! Luckily this isn't my dd, just my deer hunting rig. It's got 135k miles on it, and I plan on driving this for a long long time! I was to poor to afford a wrangler, and I don't think I would want one after having my xj! The day I bought her!


How it sits today!

It's a great jeep man! It had some rust, so I bed lined the lower 1/4s, and other than that just maintenance. New alternator, spark plugs, valve cover gasket, oil pressure sending unit, tps, iac, motor mounts and transmission mounts, and a thermostat and housing. Planning on replacing all the cooling system this summer, and hopefully a 4.5 inch lift!
