I have the Currie system on my XJ. (http://www.currieenterprises.com/ces...9.aspx?id=1219)

Was put on at the same time as the lift. I did not realize how bad my steering actually was till afterwords if that is any indication. Looking at the rustys online it looks similar.


Post up the door when done if you can. Sounds like a cool project. Ever want to take on a bumper project? Have had a concept bouncing around in my head.

Just wanted to let you guys know of an XJ my buddy is selling.

'93 Country Edition
Lifted 4.5 inches Rough Country
33 inch BFG All Terrains Brand New on black steelies
Engine Rebuilt entirely
5 Speed Tranny rebuilt
NP 231 Rebuilt Entirely with SYE
Tom Woods Drive Shaft
Flowmaster Exhaust
CAI
Interior is rough, but carpet was pulled and everything was herculined
Color is black and original Teal

He said it doesn't have a flux capacitor though, so no time traveling.

He put 11k into this rig, then decided he couldn't daily drive it anymore. He is asking 7k but said if someone flashes 5k cash he would jump on it.

PM me with questions or his number.

Was thinking about bumpers front and rear. Front I've seen some but thinking of making one with more clearance and angled. For the rear quite a bit of what out there is nice but thinking of adding utility into the design aka air tank and have a flush mounted tire carrier on the bumper. Would be simple enough to fab and prototype up.
