Was looking for pictures of Kazman's XJ build but can't find any posts or pics. What happened to them? Anyone have pics of his build?

As far as I know, he doesn't have any sort of build thread. I tried to find it a while ago when I was doing my boatside stuff and he said he basically just took a bunch of random pics.

Here's a few pics of Kazman's rig:

I don't know why you'd want to see anything on the rig.... It's total junk right now. The body is folding like a house of cards and the drivetrain is in dire need of some TLC.
If you have any questions let me know. I have a few pics of the build on my PC, but like VB said they're pretty random and I didn't document anything very well. I built almost everything "by eye" so try not to look too closely at anything.
My original picture host is gone , but I still have all the old pics if there's anything specific you'd like to see.

I found your yahoo pics. Just looking at the front suspension again. How did it work long term wise, must have been alright.
Rig doesn't look too bad, I like it without fenders.

Hey, Its good to hear from you again Kaczman. We need to do some serious trail grub for the gang sometime and sit around the campfire and get drunk again.
So what's folding on your rig. Mine gave up the ghost and I did a body swap.

The front actually works pretty well. The clearances are WAY tight around the oil pan but it fits with limited uptravel. I've had it up 70 MPH on dirt roads and it handles quite well at speed and is predictable in the rocks.
The fenders will be back on once I finish narrowing the front.

All the pillars are bent from abuse, looking at the roof makes me seasick, and I destroyed the rear 44 on the last trip out. It would be more work than its worth to try swapping the cage and drivetrain. I have a 35 spline 60 on the workbench if I ever get around to working on it. I'll try to rebuild it this winter.

Pillars and roof seem like typical collateral damage? Narrowing the front? Sounds interesting. I'm going to attempt the front four link link a few months which is why I was looking for pics of your setup.
