here are the damage pics from the bullfrog run.
I really should have been on a little more rubber, OR on rock rails, but I had a bug up my ass and wanted to go so off I went. Actually, I think the damage came from the last part of the run when we accidentally ran half of cakewalk.
driver's side
passenger's side
Now, I'm faced with some decisions to make- I have an 07 JK and an 87 XJ. The XJ has mild mods so far - the aussie in front, 31s, some fender trimming, and a brake booster upgrade. It also has damage already.:confused1 Lifting it to clear larger tires etc etc is a lot more work than it would be on the JK, which already can handle 33's stock (albeit with some clearance issues).
however, I'm thinking I should continue to invest in the XJ just for this reason- if I beat the hell out of it, at least I don't risk the 15k left on payments. Plus I've got the love and support of you guys.
can I cut those dented panels off and have rock rails welded in place there or?
my doors don't close right anymore as it is.
Input, please.
Thanks!
