Default From Wrangler Forum to here

Sold my 04 Wrangler X 4.0 5 spd to play $$$$ catch up and found a 2000 XJ sport 4 door, bought it two days ago. It appears to have 6" of lift with 35x12.50x15 BFG AT. Feels a bit rough on the ride as if the drive line is not where it should be and some other ride quality issues that will be tended to soon enough. Wanted to say hello and thanks already for some good info found here.
I have not even snapped a single photo at this point but will show soon.
Thanks for having me.

Welcome to the forum!

I'm a member over there as well. Noticed most look down on Cherokees for no good reason.

I am pretty happy with the Cherokee style now that I am in it, more room, safer for the kids and has the same power. So yeah no GOOD reason.
Thanks for the welcome

I've known some Wrangler guys and all they did was look down on me for having a XJ, without really having a reason. The only problem I ever had with them was their better than thou attitude. I told them the only Wranglers I need are my jeans and stopped hanging out with them.

Sent from my new fangled celluarized telamafone using whatever makes it work.

My wifes DD is a TJ.

They have frames. That's nice. And can have the top taken off.

Not much space though. But this isn't a Wrangler vs Cherokee discussion.

I own both though, so everyone can go pack sand.

I def am enjoying the new body style, and I have noticed a Jeep wave from some Wranglers the last couple days. I will like it more once I work out some bugs.
