It's easier to cut them in the door than it is to get those damn torx bolts out imo. Especially if you have an air hammer because you can cut most the way through then knock the bottom off with it and you won't break as many disks.

My 1st xj was running 4.5ish on 33" Baja claws



2nd was running 4.5 on 33" boggers


3rd was small, 3" on 31's


4th was also small 3" on 31's


I've had two others that i don't have pictures of but they were nothing to call home about. Now I'm xj less

First one, 89 XJ about 4" on 33" Mall Terrains, 89 converted to a 98 with full wiring, ecu, doors n dash. Also converted from auto to manual.


Second one the day I purchased it, had thrown a rod so it was cheap! Tossed in my 4.0 after first XJ got totalled by drunk driver the sunday before christmas, installed my wheels, and moved across the country!

Picked this one up on Friday and upgraded the system in it while I decide what to do first, thinking about rusty's metal flat fender setup with 32x10.50's and bumpers from LMP with JCR sliders.

Got the rear bumper on it today

Logan's metal products...nice departure angle too

Got the front LMP winch bumper primed/ painted and mounted today. Got one of the rusty's off-road steel flares mounted up also.

Started my XJ for the first time since August of 2015, all we did was make sure it had some water in it, bumped the ignition over a few times and it fired! No fresh oil or fuel, same plugs, wires, cap, and rotor as it had before it was parked too!

[struhall]

My little piece of Jeep. 93 2 door, 4.0, AW4, 231. No lift other than the stock Up Country springs on 33x12.50 tires.

Well, it lives, again...........

My XJ developed a fuel leak last year that we finally fixed, a week before the end of the month and just need to get it in for emissions testing so we can get it registered for the next year.

Dad found the leak, turns out quick disconnect at the bottom of the firewall had rotted out and then broke when we moved it into the spot we did the repair!


Got the new line in from the dealer and installed it today, quick disconnects don't disconnect quickly after 20 years of Midwestern winters, luckily the replacement clicked right in once we cut the old disco's off and it started fairly quick.

IT LIVES!!!!!!!! Again @david.ulysses.morales @davidntracy @whereintheworldisaaron @riverfrontcdjr #XJ #Jeep #Cherokee #greenjeep #rustbucketrevival

Once this was done, lunch was acquired and eaten and I then went and picked up an oil filter and catch tub so I could put fresh oil in it. I also aired up the tires and rear air shocks the rest of the way, topped off the radiator, checked to make sure all the lights were functioning as intended, Dad and I sacrificed some blood to the Jeep Gods, and it is ready to put some miles on tomorrow......including stopping at a parts store to pick up a bag of oil dry to clean up the mess I made changing the oil


It definitely will need new tires before winter, if not Labor Day, the reflectors in the headlights have started to lose the plating and have gotten moisture in them, so I will need to get new headlights before winter.

anybody in Northern Nevada around Reno and Lake Tahoe need a 242J transfer case out of a XJ, its dated 1997 on the badge, I don't need it and could use the cash
