Here's mine

we need a video of this thing now. Please and thank you. It's by far one of my favorite xj's ever built. EVER

if any TJ guys are lurking. it doesnt shake, it opens to get into the tool bags and its been nerfed a few dozen times.

thank you!

Logan, here are those pics...went and took em a few mins ago.....guess i oughta do some cleaning

hey Will, does your rear seat not lock back in the stock mounts after the shock hoop install? i cant tell much by the pics.. i was mocking mine up this afternoon and it looks like the seat is going to hit the hoops before they can lock back

it locks back in on 1 side and thats enough to keep the seat positioned/steady for passengers. if i really wanted to make it lock on the other side i could, but its never been worth the hassle because it works fine now. so its def doable for the setup

im trying to run the hoops as high as possible so im not sure if even one will latch. might notch out the seat if i have to. but i think im going to try something like this first

unfortunatly no shocks through the tub, i have a pair of king 2.5 bypasses im thinking about putting it when i redo the cage. im running, stock mounted fox 2.0 race series adjustables like what crazy jim had.

based it off my LOD Xtreme bumper.

still swings out for loading up the tools and spare parts

rear setup, gonna be adding prothanes in the back asap. 8.8 4.56 disc 31spline. wish i would have done a 3 link setup to get rid of the trac bar.

up front is a new HP 30 i need to gusset and the same fox shocks but with bilstein bumps.
very fun and quick TJ in the dirt.

I carry a 33"spare laying down in the cargo area.

This is my idea for my upper shock mounts

The lower mounts are incorporated into the spring plate.
