XJ Sightings

[selarep]

I'll start. Yesterday, 10/11/07, on the 99 freeway in the City of Fowler (right before the Clovis Ave. off ramp) there was a pre-97 4 door XJ lifted pulled over on the center pull out lane. I didn't have time to stop (job interview). Was painted Black in primer and lifted 4.5"+. I've also been trying to get some guys I see on the streets join the site and out chapter... but no dice from what I can see.

Yeah there's some guys out here in Fresno that hang with the TJ guys or other lifted trucks who have to much of a big head. I've had a white xj lifted 4.5" blow me off and walk away from me while getting gas.

I think I met that dude in Stockton. NOt really but the same thing happened to me at a gas station up here.

I have noticed a lot of xj's rolling around town lately. What gives?

I donno, but I'm gonna start chasing them down and asking them to join the board. They're starting to act like TJ guys though. This lady in a 4 door light blue 97+ with about 3.5" (out by reedley) cut me off and didnt give a damn.

Kevin over at 4WP on blackstone have a 93 green with 4" and he's a pretty cool guy, just an employee though, not a big enthusiast though.

If any of you guys get a free chance, try to get one of those guys to come out and hang out with us at the next meet and greet. of course ask them to join the site...

to many yotas around here. Once things start slowing down around here you should come over to a Four Wheel Drive Club of Fresno meeting with me. A lot of guys in my club have been wheeling for 60 years. A lot of good stories about the local trails to be told, and we really spend a lot of time and money on the shaver trails.

 

[selarep]

whens the next meeting Ben?

 

[Ben H]

November 13.

 

[selarep]

spotted some young guy in a red lifted 4 door pre-97 with a roof rack and 4.5" lift, cut front fenders and no flares.

Be on the lookout for this one:

That would be mine! Just got it a week or so ago. I've got some upgrade plans for it, but I'm going to wait until I sell my Tacoma before I spend any cash.

It's an '01 Sport with the Up Country package, about 87k on it. I'm looking at either an RE 3.5" plus some extras, DPG/RE 4", or DPG/OME. I've got a set of 5 MOABS with good MTR's already, couldn't pass 'em up for $500. That, an SYE & driveshaft, and some of AJ's rails will be enough for a little while.

I live up in Prather.

Selarep, what brand of ex-military?

I'm starting my 25th Army year... Had to think a bit about that, it's been a long time.

Anyway, I'm currently Active Duty CA ARNG, flying out of Fresno.

Nice looking Jeep. We usually rent a cabin in Shaver Lake and do a Bald Mtn. snow run in January, you should watch out for that.

 

[DougJ]
