Reader's Rig's

Here's my '88. Stock for now with craapo (I mean Maaco) paint job. I could've done better and I've never painted a car before. Also tires are bigger than stock, measure like 30.5" with no lift and a busted rear left shock. Within 2-9 months she will be getting an RE 5.5" long arm or Rock Krawler 6.5" LA with 1"-2" spacers and 35x12.5 tires. Swapping in a 29 spline 8.25 or maybe a D44, also will be adding snorkel, bumper and winch, rear tire carrier, maybe bushwackers and a 2000 watt RMS (true not advertised watts) stereo system that came out of my old Integra.

I noticed you removed your center caps? Do you want to sell one or two if they are in good shape? BTW, nice paint job!!! :shocked: It does look better than the before shots!

Hey Krazors, have some side pics of your 01? I was wanted to do a similar setup. Any vibration or steering issues? Thanks.

no issues at all. Only vibs were the exhaust against the shackle bolt. Haha. took some heating and bending to fix that. Feels just like stock. Here's a few more pics

They are super white bulbs. no amber light, just white as the name says. If you want them to be clear and still flash amber, you could try platinum bulbs.

I'm new to this forum, I'm from Ontario Canada and own a 1998 XJ with currently a 2" lift and 235/75R15 (28") BFG All Terrains.

These are very rare picture of my Jeep...the reason being that it is spotless. I do try and keep it as clean as possible, but I wheel it like every weekend, so it never lasts long.
