so I drove around today and while I did, I tried to hit some bumps out on the road to see the integrity of the mounting job. I have to say, it seems really solid. It didnt flex much at all, even with me pushing around on it with my hand. I think alot has to do with the fact that its mounted...

That seems to be the most popular way of doing it. Like I said, Ill monitor it over the next few days, and update the thread accordingly.

Have at it!

Thats exactly what I was thinking I might do. There is a gap between the bracket and the roof, so I just need to use some type of filler, like a piece of plywood, to fill it in, but I think that would work. Right now, it actually seems pretty strong. Ill keep my eye on it as I drive around...

So I decided since I had a little time today, Id mount my CB. I have a Cobra CB from walmart....Nice little deal and it works good for me. But I had a little trouble mounting it so the roof of the XJ. The head liner could not support the CB with a few screws, especially on a bumpy road. And...

Just curious...what happens with the casting number? I have the same rear axle. Also, nice jeep...just picked mine up as well. You know what...we need to start some kind of club for Cherokees...maybe a North American one since they have them all over the world. And just for XJs. That would...

IH8RDS, thank you once again...ha ha. TheGillz..thank you sir...thank you. xjmike, sounds like we are on the same type setup. What lower control arms are you using?? (edit: I see your sig) As for the starting issue, just glad its not a huge deal. Thanks for all for the help and...

sounds good..thanks.

is this the PORC kit you guys like? http://www.performanceoffroadcenter.com/oscommerce/product_info.php?products_id=153&osCsid=88f045cb3abf52028f4ede628284523c

Yes I do. Cool.

awesome...sounds good. Plus, they are probably pretty easy to get ahold of. Will it fit without modification (long enough)?

By DS, you mean driveshaft? Isnt a front driveshaft a lot smaller than the rear?

well, heres what I did today: I took the advice of checking out NAXJA, and read through all of the FAQs. Gained a lot of knowledge just in that section. So since my steering wheel was turned to the right driving straight (b/c of the lift) I just adjusted the drag link. Now my steering wheel...

Thanks for all the great info...Im gonna look at all the parts you guys have told me about. Ive been to NAXJA before, but that was a while back and I actually forgot about it...so thanks for the reminder...I need to find a good forum for this thing. I also found this XJ website if anyone...

Thanks...no joke. I got a really good deal on this one.

Thanks man.

Thanks for the info...I need it..ha...Ill look into all of these.

No worries! Post a pic man...Id like to see it. Im new to the XJ side and wouldnt mind seeing another new purchase... Thanks for the info on the track bar, and yeah...Im hunting for some 31's already...the power is still reasonable, but drivability, mileage, and yes, some power, will be...

Since Im new to XJ's, someone mind explaining the problem with a DPA? Im just curious...I know that some YJ kits come with them...does it have something to do with the fact that YJs are leafs up front and XJs are coil/linked? Thanks!
