So good to see other xj overland enthusiast out there. These jeeps are extremely capable and btw i enjoy the hell out of your floor pan idea.

Hey, thanks. The intent with the floor was two fold. Up front Mods let me run grand Cherokee seats on the GC buckets instead of trying to make the xj ones work but lose the power adjustments.
The rear was done with the thought of adding a water tank for longer excursions.

Same here. Did you remove all the backseat / rear seatbelt mounting points ?

Let me think... had wagoneer on the brain lately which uses a different rear seat mount. I'll have to look to see if a seat could be reinstalled, I honestly don't remember. It's almost always just me going out so I had no need of it but think the 4door gives more access to the rear area.

Is the jeep still available?

Hey, so sorry for the late reply. I don't know what's up with Tapatalk not sending me alerts that posts were made. I've checked and it's all correct, just not letting me know.
Yes, the Jeep is still available. I got the wheel spacer replaced along with the 3 sheared axle studs. It's supposed to snow tonight which means I'll be chauffeuring the wife to work. I'll get a better idea of how it does and will post up. I've put so few miles on this thing (especially lately) since everything was put back together that there is always something to hear/feel/etc.
I'm hoping life may be finally taking a turn for the better so this may get pulled off the for sale chopping block. Maybe. We are way behind so it's still up for now.
I'll shoot you a text in the morning and we can "talk" if you want. Ask whatever you want, I'll tell you everything I know or can guess.
Again, sorry for the late reply.

Sounds good thanks. Is it running well and road worthy at the moment? I am def buying a jeep or truck this weekend and yours looks solid so I would love to get it on Friday if possible.

I've been driving it for the last week or so and it runs great. Driving it on the other hand is pissing me off. The swaybar not being fixed makes it wander and act weird. I think the drivers side upper control arm is loose or has an issue with the bolt because it clunks. My intention when building it was to go long arms or maybe swap in a HP Dana 44 from a bronco using the radius arms. It drives but takes attention as it just kinda wanders around randomly, kinda like steering a ship. It's annoying because I spent so much time putting stuff together that it shouldn't be like this. I need to spend some time looking it over closer to see what exactly is causing it. I'm wondering if the toe in is off a little. I haven't had any death wobble but if feels to me like death wander.
My back is finally feeling a little better so maybe I can look at it some tomorrow before school. I'll let ya know what I find.

Also meant to ask how much room there is behind the seats? If you push them forward and tilt them is there enough to sleep in a pinch? Just curious.
