There is a guy around the college that drives around in a bright yellow MJ. I honestly dont know what I like better XJs or MJs. I just bought my first cherokee so I better not start envying those MJs or you know what will happen next. Its probably a good thing my bank account is empty.

Finally got it to work. This is my 88 Comanche 2.5L, replaced AX-4 with AX-5, SYE, 3 inch Rough Country lift, metric ton D44. It will soon have 4.5 inch springs to complement the Teraflex shackles I added, a non disconnect D30 and I will be fabricating control arm with Ballistic Fab's joints. Needs an engine over haul and some rust repair. the bed was replaced recently with a mint Pioneer piece and I don't have pictures yet. I'll be starting a build thread once I'm done with school in the next few weeks.

Yea it is a bit wide, for only having 33x12.5x15 on 15x10 Bart steelies with 3 inches of lift. I think they have around 4 or 4.5 inches of backspacing. But hey I paid 50 buck for all four wheels, and 200 for the Pro Comp's. Low and wide, I'll probably stick with the those PC's but go with a nice set of aluminum rims. The front fenders got the axe when I was in high school, but the rear was never cut. Since then it has new front fenders that are primed along with the hood and cowl. New bed I put on over one of my breaks last year. I need to repair a small rust spot on the passanger cab corner and floors that were ate by the great salt that is spread during the northern winters and then get this bad boy painted. Still debating on having it painted or doing it my self. Those pictures were taken when I was 16 don't have anything newer yet, once I'm back in Virginia I'll get some more up.
