I have been looking around on here for a few months and figured I'd introduce myself. My name is Matt and I am from just north of Milwaukee. I have a 1996 xj with the 2.5 and a 5 speed. I put a set of 30" bfg's on it and plan to put in the 2" budget boost I have soon. It is my first jeep and a lot different then my old car, a 1992 civic with 200 wheel hp.
Here is a picture from the day I put the new tires on, I have a ton of crap in the back...

A 2 door with a 5spd is uncommon enough. AND a 2.5l I4? Pretty rare combination, I suspect.

Welcome to the nuthouse.

That is what I drove for a year and jumped last year at Ranchstock. 1993 2door,2.5,5speed,231t/c and I could NOT kill that thing!!
 
2.5 is a solid engine and gets reasonable gas mileage, esp behind a 5spd.

Gear the snot out of it, more lift and bigger tires :-) 2.5's love gears :-)
