It's funny to do that to stock Wranglers with your lifted XJ. Even the Rubicons look pathetic.98XJSport said:
Am I an XJer if I wake up, and after a quick phone call and maybe an hour's time I'm at an unpaved junkyard in the rain to get an upgrade part (a 231 t-case to replace the shelled 242)? Then put it in that evening to go wheelin the next morning?

Guilty of everything including the poo. I'm on the computer if I'm not in the XJ or sleeping. XJs more important than eating or constant employment. Just need the job for victuals for the XJ.

You can drive past the front of another Cherokee and announce that it does not have a D-44?
I have a bud who has been considering the XJ for a trail buggy. I keep bringing him here...and I'm a Ford guy! LOL I am impressed by these little XJs; big fun, little $$$.

Ahhh no, I think it owns you! LMAO91 Jeep Project said:I have always found there are two brands of people here. There are people who own Jeeps, and then there are Jeep owners.

Too much to read. But I guess I'm not real XJer...My heater works awesome, I'm dwarfed by stock Suburbans, and I'd bet most that wheel sit even with if not a little lower than a Suburban, I don't know any of the parts guys, mine has been running good for while now. Mine starts first time, just about every time and tends not to stall (but its an auto, so I cheatcjben said:
), I Have maybe $500 tops, not including purchase price, into my Jeep, but it gets me through everything I throw at it, I envy the guy in the Land Cruiser cause I want one. Great truck on the street, way better than one would expect off-road and I could tow my Jeep to the trail behind it while riding in better than Cadillac luxury...My dented fenders were fixed by cutting them off. Pretty much mine still sees plenty of street time and as such, I try not to abuse it. I wheel the piss out of it, but its only been sunk in the water once and only 3 inches deep...inside. But I love my Jeep, I love what it does and I love the fact that its a good ugly...

You get piping mad at the parts store when they ask you "Grand Cherokee?" when you specifically said "Cherokee" or XJ.
Your home page is http://www.naxja.org/forum
You know what fell off just by the noise your jeep now makes.

You get mad at people who call grand cherokees Cherokees. You laugh at Cherokee drivers with doughnut spares cause they look funny even if there not on.
