haha! Good story. As I was reading it, I thought it was going to end with the guy wanting to fight you because you were checking out his wife. And you told him, No man I was looking at your Jeep and then she felt stupid. LOL!!!

So, you know you have an XJ when..... You start fixing everything on the Jeep and the to do list still gets longer.

I had a really nice chat with the owner. He could tell I was really stoked about my new (to me) XJ and he had some pretty good info to share with me. I was/am appreciative of what he told me.

YKYDAXJW you park over the curb at work, and don't even realize it until someone points it out to you.

When you and your friend find a D60 diff cover in his neighbors barn (we were cleaning it out not stealing stuff), and start looking for more parts.
Didn't find the rest of the axle but found a 4.10 R&P, carrier and the rest of the internals.

YKYDAXJW you get sad because the rain is going to wash all the mud off..And then you get really excited because you realize...rain = mud and since your jeep isnt dirty anymore, you need to go mudding again!

YKYDAXJW you prosperously hit mud puddles.
