That is a very cool looking setup. Good job getting it

Sweet!

Gorgeous looking XJ. Love those fenders.

One thing I will say, not a fan of how they did the roll cage in the rear. It looks like you've permanently divided the space. Would much rather have that completely open so one could do what they want with it.

So i left Bellingham Washington yesterday and attempted to drive the Jeep to Utah and the PCM went out in Le grande Oregon, we ordered one from Florida and had it sent to the shop that I left it at and Ill have to drive back up their(8 Hours) to pick it back up on Tuesday and drive it back!!!!

The Jeep is back home all in one piece!! On the way home two transmission codes showed up- P0700 & P0740- AKA Transmission.

I went to the local shop and them look, NEW Filter and NEW Fluid changed out and fixed the CEL light!!! At the time I found out that the transfer case was almost dry as well.

At least it is home!!!!

The front axle in that pic is a stock D30 with a truss, not a D44

 

[oscar the grouch]

Nice.

wonder why they under trussed it. Does it have a truss on top too?

Great looking xj. looks like it may have been a prerunner for desert racing before. Looks like you are on your way to do some desert exploring.

It was built as a pre-runner. I'm still new the Jeep world so,please be patient if I miss quote things.

Don't worry about it. Most people here are forgiving about any errors. I'm sure none of us have ever screwed up.

Took off the 900 IPF lights and installed LEDs.

Spent the entire day grinding and sanding down the rust on the bumpers and sliders.

Looks much better. Now send me the old lights
