Approach/Departure Angles of an XJ

[Cherokeelaredo]

What are they of a stock Xj? I searched google for 30 minutes and got everything BUT that.
Thanks.
Also if anyone knows how they compare to a stock YJ/TJ that would be awesome.

I'll do a quick search, but I know a stock TJ has better angles, especially in the front.

stock TJ... approach angle of 42.5deg, a breakover of 25.5deg and a departure angle of 30.5deg.

stock 97+ XJ... approach:38 Breakover:21 departure:32

I got some conflicting numbers, but within +/-1 degree, so they're close enough. I'm not sure that the departure numbers are accurate, but I don't have any spec sheets with me

I get this mental picture of you going out with a ruler and a protractor to measure that bump before you drive over it.
Having driven both a YJ and an XJ, I gotta say the butt hangs out a bit on the XJ (probably the reason gas tank skid pans are so popular). Of course if you lift it and get bigger tires, things kind of even out a bit.

I also suggest a good bumper skid... aka class III hitch
