Very nice!! I finished my left (Netted 4.25in over stock) and plan on running JK take-offs (32in)
Thanks. I've only had this one for about 8 months. It's slowly coming along. Im a buy once kind of person so I want everything right the first time. I have a Smittybilt XRC front bumper I putting on soon.
I'm wanting to do JK wheels and tires.. I've found several but I REALLY like the rubicon wheels but guys want a 1,200 or more for wheels and tires.
So I'm thinking of just getting some 15x8 steel wheels and some cheaper 32s and use that saved money for a rear tire carrier, and then start on my offroad trailer

Did a title work to the XJ yesterday. Painted hood to prevent light reflection from the light bar. Loaded the roof rack with some camping gear, water and cooler. Reorganized recovery box and tool box. And the rest of my camping gear. Added a fire extinguisher mount. Turned out nice for half days work.

I woke up yesterday to my windows being shot out....Lovely. Someone went through town shooting out car windows the night before with a BB (Semi-auto CO2 powered pistol was found at one area) they hit 5-6 vehicles and the police have no leads. So, this was an expensive day. Luckily they didn't shoot my other 2 Jeeps or my wife's van.

They are good for cheap lights, very, very bright.. I get flashed occasionally because people think I have my brights on. I plan on changing to Truck-lite's they give you great light output, they are LED, but they are expensive..
