But any suggestions on bumper and rails would be nice i got a lot of sites but sure there are some that I am looking over.

Buy local. Garrett fabrications. I post pics when I get them thrown on this weekend/early next week.

I want to do it, and I am signed up, but I am on the fence until the day gets closer. It is a time/distance constraint.

I will try to see if I can at least raise a little dough.

Changing the subject - when I run into something on my son's XJ that exceeds my abilities, tools, garage space or attention span. It isn't urgent as I've been able to DIY thus far but if I need to put an SYE in or have motor work done I might need to outsource. Are there any good shops or techs in the area that you could recommend?
Since we just finished the 3" lift I need to get that thing aligned somewhere too. Anything I should know or any certain place I should go?
