Any other XK owners out there? I'm new to Jeep and even 4wd so I'm looking for some inspiration. I've got a 2007 with QDII and trying to get setup mostly for back country family camping.
We (actually the wife) have a Commander. We love it. It goes where we need it to, and is quite comfy. It's been in the Swell, all over the Manti Lasal range here in Utah, the GSL desert, and now we use it to explore southern Utah as well. It fits my family much better and with more comfort than the YJ that I have for the harder stuff. Ours is still stock, but we plan on putting a Teraflex budget lift on it and some slightly larger tires in the next year or so.
We have a MY08. It's a great truck. I like it's relatively small foot print for a 7 seater. It's quite agile for a 5000lb brick and drives surprisingly well on road. Quieter and more refined than I initially expected. Comfy too. And I love the classic design. It's mainly used for hauling the baby and dogs around, winter driving duties and road trips.
i stopped building parts. sorry. went back to school to finish my bachelors degree in accounting. only 1.5 years to go.:victory:
my old website should be back up and running by the end of the week.

it was my expo blog and jeep building blog. i'm working on a 1994 Grand Cherokee now. maybe one of these days my computer will show up so i can get it running again.
I might have to figure something out locally for a rear tire carrier.. Rocky Road lift gets here tue, but I'm leaving town wed, so I won't be able to install it until the end of the month.
Good stuff though.. hopefully I can play a little on my trip. I'm headed to Utah but we're planning to stay around Salt Lake City. We'll see if I get to test the 4wd.
