I like your setup. Any rubbing issues? I've decided on the same tires and height but want to keep my stock fenders.

Thanks!

I haven't disconnected yet because I'll probably need bump stops but I have no rubbing at all.

I've actually changed my mind and will be keeping it silver for now.

Hey guys its been a while. Not much to update but added some new kicker speakers since two of the stock ones finally blew and I just ordered a Dynomax Super Turbo exhaust system and the Rugged Ridge front tow hook kit. Hopefully they'll be here next week. Hopefully everything will bolt right up.

Just installed the Rugged Ridge Front Tow Hooks. Took me and a buddy about 2 hours. All the bolts came out with no problem and I did what others recommended and replaced the factory bolts that hold on the brackets with M10 1.5 x 30 and lock washers. My Dynomax Super Turbo cat back system should be here in a few days so that'll be next.

Got my exhaust in the mail and took about 30 minutes to install. Got to love an XJ from the south. Everything unbolted without a problem and I've never had a bolt snap on me with any install so far. Hopefully it stays this way.

I went with the AJ's super rock rails and I am impressed with them so far. I haven't had any hard hits on them yet but they look good and seem really strong.

Thanks man. I was looking at those and they appear to be priced better than most. I'll have to check on what the shipping is to NC. I believe JCR has theirs for $369 with free shipping.

WOW......It's been a long time since I've been on here. I finally fixed my horrible headlight issue and purchased the Trucklites. Huge difference over factory headlights.
