As we all know, Clrusty was in a horrific accident about a month ago, his XJ was totaled, he and his family sustained heavy losses and injuries. I know this hit home for a lot of us. We all have families and this could've happened to any of us.
I'm sure you all remember getting a pm from Shrek about parts to rebuild another XJ for rusty, but we still needed a XJ to build, I called Kevin Berta at Express pull-n-save in LaVergne, TN. I told the story of what happened to Kevin Berta andasked if they would donate parts once we found a XJ. Since we didn't have a jeep yet Kevin offered to find and donate a XJ.
Here is the XJ:
It's a 2000, 4.0, 2wd. Runs awesome.
It was given to Rusty yesterday and these are tears of joy.
I'm still waiting on other pics to post. It was a great time and was great to see a jeep clubs come together to help a fellow jeeper.
Rough Country also donated a 3" AAL lift kit for the XJ.
I want to thank all the family and friends that were there and everyone that helped to keep this under wraps to so he wouldn't find out. We need to plan a Wrenchfest to build it for him.

Since there is a wrenchfest scheduled for October 8, I thought I'd put the link to the parts sheet on this post for easy reference.
