its amazing how quickly you can buy and build up your XJ when you're parting out a 1ton axles rig on 42's. I sold my D60/14bolt combo for enough to buy and register the XJ.
 
When I bought it in 07'. just a little too much rake, haha

I posted some of my DD earlier, didnt realize I didnt post some of my trail rig.


The pic from the for sale ad. Built stock axles, 35's, typical bolt on goodies

After DD'ing it for a few years, it went under the knife. Narrowed 1tons, 37" stickies, 3 link, typical non-bolt on goodies

Wheeled it a little bit full bodied, built a bender and made a hybrid cage. Chopped the roof, dove nose, harnesses, etc.

And this coming from the guy with the ugliest comanche ever...:gee:

'twas a compliment.

if it gets in the way, cut it off, is my motto.

I got that sweet sunroof though, so the right side of my face can get sunburned while I wheel.
