Which part of your XJ is a guaranteed rock magnet?

For me it seems to be the right front towhook

Each time I pound that bracket into shape (kind of) I seem to catch it on the next outing no matter how careful I am about it......

So how about the rest of you? Does anyone else sem to have a "favourite magnet"?

Not too many rocks where I wheel but the right hand lower control arm bracket is a stump magnet, it just digs deeply into at least one tree stump almost every ride.

left rear taillight, rockers, roof

Top corners of the cage and tail lights. Roof is slowly getting magnetized.

Tail lights, rear bumper, t-case skid and rockers.

A week after I got my ARB bull bar, I was trying to avoid a 3ft+ rock when I hit some loose dirt and slid right into it. I put a big dent right where the winch mount is located. Luckily though, I had not installed the winch yet, or it might be toast.

Actually, my rig seems to be more of a branch magnet than a rock magnet. There are many tight trails in Colorado and I seem to keep scratching the sides.

Left rear quarter panel. The BPI rear bumper and corner plates will help a little, I hope. Front right control arm mount on axle seems to have some altered polarity as well.

The windshield, of course.

my doors, specifically, driver side doors, I try to use my rock rails to piviot around things and it doesn't always work.

Oh well, I don't have a straight body panel on my Jeep, roof included, that's what makes it cool.

Anything below the (roof-mounted) antenna is in the food chain

hmmm, my drivers side control arm, the !@#$%^& way too low shock brackets...(soon to be shortened) and my rear diff, along with pinstriping here and there.....;-)

My wallet always seems to get snagged by the Jeep.

Everything underneth...but you already knew that Kejtar!

What's all this about control arms, crossmembers, bumpers, etc., that stuff's there to hit the rocks.

For me it's doors. I have a brand new paint job, done in Jan. I dinged one door and rear quarter panel, got that repainted in April. Now, all four doors have dents and scratches. I used to be more careful than that.........what's happened?

Those pesky rear shock brackets, which are soon to become victims to the fire wrench.
