i have owned the zone lift on 5 of my XJs and have always been pleased. The Rubicon Express is over priced, Rough Country and Skyjacker are trash, Rustys is a rough riding, IRO is good but too expensive for this build, not sure what else that leaves.

Man that is awesome to hear. Glad you got resolution. It seemed like it wasnt going to end this way.

Using force to get the springs in and out. Front done minus the stabilizer and end links. Hopefully this week I will get to the rest of the stuff so I can get it back on the ground.

Finally had some time to work on it, she has been named Tennessee Volunteer. Kind of fits with the past history. She had been ready and waiting. And so we begin. All of the hardware came out with zero issues. Rear going back together. You can see the damage to the 1/4 i found after...

More parts are arriving. The front signals were shot and leaking so it was time to fix them up. I also got the new headlights and all the ZEVO LED bulbs for all the exterior lighting. Swapped the strobes over. Onto the headlights. My tire salesman was highly impressed. Low beam...

I am really pleased with this one. It’s not going anywhere. I have too much attachment to it.

Yup Federal Emissions rig. I got lucky on several different levels with this one. Couldn't be happier. Brought it down off the lift to vacuum and get the floor mats installed, as well as the window visors. The interior in this thing is so mint I just can not be happier. After a quick...

They are staying for sure. I have no reason to take them off and could help when I need it at some point. Haha. Yea I was hunting hard when I found it. The guy just got another one 99 Sport 175k miles and its silly clean, but its black, $4700 is what he wants...

This is exactly what I was after, no rot or rust. Clean. Thats awesome. They are awesome vehicles. I will be going through mine as well when I do the tear down. All the fluids plus the pan gasket and main seals. Nice. Was it expensive? I hunt all over the south and west to east to...

Have a part number? Thats interesting.

She has arrived. I am pleased, the interior is mint, when I say mint almost perfect. That was my main concern. The paint is all original and is a little rougher than I had hoped, but it sat outside all the time so I suspected. I am going to wet sand and polish it back to life, but I will...

following along this looks like a great build.

Well I still do not have the Jeep, but i do have the title. The shipper is throwing all the excuses in the world on why it has not picked up, needless to say it is frustrating. Anyhow my fab guy has done some awesome work and got the bumper all ready for powdercoat. He is going to look at...

A few more parts arrived today, the pile keeps on growing. I did a ton of research on winches and the Smittybilt seems like the best value for the money.

A couple of the parts started trickling in over the past week. One of my favorite pieces for the build which is completely applicable to this XJ is these decals made by jessenator. These arrived yesterday and I cannot wait to get them mounted up. Still waiting on the Jeep to be...

Have a couple in the mix. Waiting to take delivery of the 4 door to build for an expedition rig.

What about the JCR piece? Its much cheaper and designed for them.

I am a long, long time lurker and finally getting around to joining and posting my own thread. About 6 month ago I bought the most insane 2001 2 door XJ that I was not sure what to do with. It was a one owner with 44k miles and it was perfect minus the passenger side flare and side marker, and...

loving the updates, followed your threads on the other forums and found you over here. will follow along.
