Thank you for all the tips gents! Truly! Sloowwwwwww downnnnnnnn. Got it! I'm going to get it adapted properly for flat tow first which will include doing the front bumper. After that, easy does it one step at a time. I never even considered some of the ideas mentioned with suspension and...

Yes, all that stuff was purchased already eeek! I went with those bumpers due to several factors. I have them in hand now and they are extremely robust. Price, lifetime warranty, quality. Looks were the last concern, but I happen to like them. I just have to wait for the sliders to show up...

Good looking Jeeps! What size tires are those? I ordered 15x8 rims with 31/10.5 tires. I would have liked to go a little larger, but from what I read, there can be clearance issues and rubbing. That is why I went with the Notch flares as opposed to Bushwhacker.

I'm brand new to this whole concept. I guess in a perfect world, I can tow a vehicle behind my motorhome, explore an unseen world within reason, and have it look decent all at the same time, without spending big money on a new Rubicon or alike. My intentions are to be able to take the family...

No pics yet, but I'm brand new to this and trying to set up my bone stock XJ for flat tow behind the motorhome. I'm curious, what tow bars are you guys using? The price range is so drastic. $1,500 for a tow bar? Ouch. Which combo tow bar/base plate have y'all found to work the best...

I'm brand new to this site, and a brand new 2000 XJ owner, as of a couple days ago. It's bone stock as of now, but I saw this thread and would like to come to Calico! I live in Yorba Linda so it's not too far at all. I'm currently working on setting it up for flat tow behind the motorhome...
