Hello all. Like many I've been lurking for a while but only recently started posting. I introduced myself in the PA thread but thought I would post up for those that don't follow that thread. I bought my '97 Country about a year ago. Previous owners had installed a RE 4.5" lift, discos, hack n tap SYE, craigers, 32" tires, front bumper and probably a couple other things I'm not thinking of. Since owning it I've done mostly maintenance stuff like fluids, plugs/wires/dist, t-stat, water pump, hoses, alternator, battery, ext idle switch. Also modified the front bumper to fit a Warn M8274 my Dad bought new back in '85 and I rebuilt last spring. Also added a t-case skid. Got a great deal on the Jeep since it had over 200k on it but everything works and there is almost no rust on it. I was more concerned about rust and everything else working than the miles... engines are cheap if it blows and I can fix most stuff that comes up but I hate rust. Plus all the mods on it were done the way I would have done them. I don't have a ton of pics but I'll try to add a few. The other XJ in the third pic is fellow forum member and my XJ mentor knb13.

Hey thanks XJWonders and Morris! Also forgot to note that I trimmed the front fenders and relocated the stock flares since those pictures were taken as a result of almost losing a flare on that trip. I may start a build thread at some point just to keep track of what I do. I have a long wish list and a vision, hopefully I can make it happen but it'll probably be a slow build.
