The textured finish in the bumper looks great! A lot of hours have been put into your rig and it shows! Good job.

Thank you Jeffery!

Very nice! Always love to see another well built XJ! I still need to do a re-gear on mine, just haven't felt like doing it yet lol

Here is mine after 100's of hours late at night working on it..

Looking good.

Do yourself a favor and reinforce the steering box area of the unibody before you start getting into modding it heavily. The stresses that area sees when you really put the suspension to work can easily crack it out around the mounting points.
