Drivin a '01 Cherokee Sport. 4.0 L and as far as I know, the only at my school, Deerfield Beach High. Looking right now at either adding a light bar to the bumper or roof along with KC lights or the sort. May also bite the bullet and get a whole wrap around guard on the front.

dude i hate people with civics you put the exhaust tips on them to make then sounds super loud when they suck. they may get better gas but they cant go anywhere we can.

just got my lift for my XJ 3 days ago! cant wait to get it on! but first i gotta get the engine working, may have hydrolocked it.

SIU? Edwardsville or Carbondale?

I graduated from Edwardsville in 2002. Not a bad school for the money. I actually even lived in Prairie Hall for a semester until I almost flunked out.

I hit a bunch of mud puddles doing around 35 and it soaked my intake box and the filter so i took it out to get cleaned up along with spraying off the engine, it was coated with mud just as much as the body was

this thread is pretty great. I went to Franklin County Tech school up in western MA, a whole bunch of rednecks. 3/4 vehicles in the lot were lifted, i graduated this past year (2010) graduation gift to myself was my xj. White 94 SE auto 4.0 anyway my parents dont like the thought of me lifting it all to much. I went out and bought a set of 32"x11.5 pro comp mud terrains on 15" steelies. I told em that it was a incredible deal for 50$ especially with 80% tread and studs, and that i needed "aggresive" tires for the **** winters up here (already demolished a car cause of it). Mom wasnt all to happy when i told her that they were to big to fit stock and i'll have to modify a bit lol.

Hahaha I just told her I wanted a Lifted Truck (never even thought of a jeep) or a Fourth Gen. LS1 Camaro or Firebird so she liked the Jeep better and she even payed the $250 for Registration. Got it stuck in the mud day after getting it and I mean stuckkk took 3 4x4 cummins to get me out and she was pissed. Had a nice layer of mud for school tho.

Well, Im a few years out of school, but I have wheeled generally with the same bunch of folks since I was 16...

My XJ when I was 16... 6.5 RC and 33's





Same XJ when I was 18... 6.5 RC, 2.5" shackle and coil spacers, 35s.



Random junk parts I accumulated in that time, was alot more, just didn't keep them all, had brought these up from a piece of land I had because a guy called me wanting parts... Let him come pick at them.


The day I sold it, friends and I got together one night in the summer of 07' and painted the jeep while very intoxicated, we were going to give it the dukes of hazzard paintjob, but at the time were too messed up to realize we needed to do the roof first (yeah, I know lol)

I still wheel with the same folks, whether they wheel XJs, YJs, ZJs, or Full Size Trucks or whatever... Its been a wild ride.
I have owned
84 XJ (Sold)
89 XJ (Sold)
97 XJ (Current Wheeler)
99 XJ (Sold)
97 ZJ (Sold)
01 WJ (Sold)
78 K10 (Sold)
03 Z71 (Sold)
99 S10 (Sold)
93 Accord (Sold)

Im 21 now... Here are some pics of my current heep.







Been a XJ loyalist, love them, have owned countless different vehicles and the XJ is the only one I keep going back to...
