i got the bug

[swamprat]

yup, just minding my own business one day gathering up the things i needed to lift my XJ. when some guy from NAXJA offers to trade me MAPMAN's old MJ for my almost stocker XJ. and so here i am, happy to be driving a lifted XJ/MJ again. i've missed the clacks and creaks of older jeeps..

 

i havent taken any pictures of the jeep since i got it 5 hours ago. but i can steal some of his pictures from photobucket! lol

its basically the same now, but it does have a different set of fenders, and no front bumper. which is ok, cause i plan to convert to a 97+ front end and build tube bumpers front and rear. and getting a bench seat rather then buckets

 

 

oh and btw, hello again. i like never post anymore, but i shall now!

plenty of us have been there, done that. just minding our own business one day and BAM! there's another MJ in our driveway. :yes:

 

though none of the ones I've acquired looked that cool from day one. :cheers:

looks like your one ton steering tried over powering your tie rod
