I've been out of the XJ game for over 20 years. I had a built XJ on 35s that I ran in JV a few times before going to the TJ platform. Now I'm done with extreme rock crawling and am just exploring and camping. I'm going to build an XJ on 31's, 2"+- lift, lockers, etc. to kinda go everywhere I want to except JV and other crazy trails. I know the vendors from "back in the day" but wondered if there are new ones to consider. Weight is something I'd like to avoid.
Lift companies look the same. I will probably go OME with some better shocks unless someone says something earth shattering. I don't want to go tall and 31" tires are the firm maximum.
I am looking for any bumper and rocker guard recommendations. ARB is still to big IMO, and I used to run a Hansen, which is still around. I'm curious if anyone has built a better mousetrap then them. Is anyone doing bumpers in aluminum like Savvy does for the TJ?
I used to run the ORGS rocker guards, but they are obviously long gone. What are the best rock guards out now?
Any particular belly skid and gas tank skid that is great? Again - anyone working in aluminum?
I'm not on a limited budget, so I'm interest in quality, ease of installation, and weight over price.
Thanks for your recommendations.
