Whoops, didn't actually click into this thread before posting. Even Jeep gets the grille upside down.

I really do like the OE styled flares. Probably the cleanest cut fender XJ look I've seen.

Still great to see Jeep acknowledge the XJ in today's age.

SUVs are unnecessary and worse in every way than minivans. Also, the Honda Ridgeline, albeit ugly, is too often maligned. It's engineered to be pretty practical and I would own one if they weren't so ugly. Final hot take: Internal combustion engines in passenger vehicles should be a joint effort, standardized product between most all of the automakers to ride out the last gasp until Solid State batteries.

What a beast!

Go Gamecocks (another year, I guess)!

It's crazy to me how much less desirable the XJ got (to me personally) interior and trim wise as the years went on. My 89 Wagoneer was miles nicer than my 95 XJ.

The MJ has been sitting as I was busy working on selling some of my other vehicles. I did finally make time to regear and install the Spartan Helical LSD in the front D30 last weekend. Things went together pretty well.

We got about 3" here in SC

Was in one of my favorite places on earth this past weekend, Franklin NC.

Spotted a beautiful red Comanche, possibly an Eliminator, on SC 28 near Seneca, SC yesterday.

On FB marketplace

Took a ride down to the Savannah River the other week.

There's benefits to OBD1 vs Renix but then Renix has a few benefits over the OBD1 setup. I am running 94 harness and ECM on my MJ. I like the wiring better, it starts faster, but a REM would be really cool. I can always get the adapter and go OBD2 with the ECM if I want.

Well, I guess it's been a year. Not much has changed on the ol MJ. I went through a period of wanting to sell it to buy a crew cab truck, but then I found a really good deal on a 2012 F150 in Alabama. Drive it home just fine and then a week later it started misfiring at cold idle. Apparently, Ford had a batch of bad intake valves in the 2011-13 5.0s that are made too soft and hammer themselves flat over time. So I pulled the engine and did a valve job, new intake valves, timing chains, oil pump, full reseal. It should be good to go for another while. I've mainly been busy with projects around the house, like building my kids the playset in the background of the F150 picture. Put the MJ to work hauling some of the wood, although I got most of it delivered.

Thanks for all your hard work! Without your product, KeyParts may not have thought it viable to recreate the assemblies.

That's a very reasonable price

This guy repaired his with new capacitors.

An ARB sounds just like what you're looking for, but they are pricy. I love mine though. Found it used on FB marketplace

My truck was originally dark blue interior. I still have most of the parts, including a crack free dash

My whole fleet is high mileage. 1989 MJ - 286k 2006 Honda Pilot -342k 2011 Honda Odyssey Touring Elite- 241k

How tall are you, how much higher do they sit?

My kids are 4,2, and 6 months so I feel you.

I haven't decided yet. SC law is 27%, so probably as close as possible to that for heat reasons. If I find the right shop that carries like 80%, I might be tempted to tint the windshield as well.
