Hey everybody

Hey everybody,

Just thought i would introduce myself. My name is Derek live in south central Minnesota. Drive a 99 XJ swapped a d44 in the rear, aussies front and rear budget boosted with 31" tsl's. Waiting to go under the knife to put a set of upcountry leafs and coils I picked up. The most important mod: baby seat for my 15 month old daughter

Welcome to the group!

I've been to Mankato many times, as my stats state, I'm from the Onalaska/La Crosse area, but am going to school in Menomonie...

Theres a couple other guys lurking about from this area, Jeff up by Rochester, myself, Raymont in Onalaska, a guy over in Sparta and some others... Hop on FB if you have it and look up the MWC there...

Hi.

You'll fit in well here.......as long as you aren't a verizon employee or drive a subaru.

Welcome to the MWC where our previous president loves sheep, the current one likes Cheese, I like to post and bacon and beer are currency and yes I'm serious about that. As long as you have thick skin you'll fit in just fine.

 

[XJ&CHZ4ME]

Welcome.

Cheese is good.

FlexdXJ is a toothless hillbilly.

Cheeseman-OUT!

 

[XJ Stryker]

Welcome. Your skin doesn't even have to be too thick.

Welcome to the forum. How much lift are you planning. I don't think the Up country will really clear 31's good at all.

 

[REWSTER]

Welcome

Combined with a BB it will rob. Hell, I am running 31's on a BB alone.

And I've ran 32s on a BB alone.

Makes sense since I bought this one from you........:laugh3:

Welcome...to you and your daughter.

Our Midwest Chapter has a Winterfest outing in March 2011.
We'll soon have a thread dedicated to that.
We have different totals, but it was anywhere from 90-100 Cherokees and Comanches in attendance.
It is a great place to get to know us.

[XJ Stryker]

I missed the BB'ed part. What is the total lift.

 

[Rykker23]

Right now I'm at roughly 2" of lift. Enough to clear 31's but they rub like hell. Should have about 3" or so after the Up country additions. When i have access to a computer I will post up some pics of my XJ. Hard to copy the links from my phone...

And they clear the mall curbs just fine, don't they :jester:

hi

[XJ Stryker]

You will need to trim with 31's and 3in. My wife's rig is set up like that and it eats the hell out of the fenders on flex.

I really feel 30's is max with no trimming on 3 inches. I have yet to damage my fenders on my rig.

 

[Rykker23]

Well the tires did the trimming for me. I only have 1 fender flare remaining. At any rate it will be better than what I have now.

 

[FlexdXJ]

And they clear the mall curbs just fine, don't they :jester:

Dats fo sho! Just barely though. Good thing I have those skid plates! :laugh3:

 

[Rykker23]

Mine does not currently clear the mall curbs. Not without rubbing anyways. Lol
