Search on naxja, I remember something about a group but a bunch of them did for the 2500 parts some years ago

Yeah I may have to trace these parts down piece by piece. It appeals to me haha I don't know why. At first glance it looks like a zj though to me

Tow hooks seem rare, around here anyways. I looked at several junkyards multiple times and never found a set with brackets. And a couple of the yards had quite a few XJ's. Of course someone gave me a heads up on a set that is verified there by my buddy who is friends with the yard owner, two days after I caved and had a bumper made.

Realy? Well 4 of the six (well 3 now) Cherokees at the junkyard by me had tow hooks... Idk if the others had them or not but for $5 a piece they tend to go quickly

Yeah, I mean I never even came across a bracket that someone took hooks off.

My 98 came with tow hooks. I used the mounts to weld my bumper to. It's held up to quit a few heavy winch pulls.

I think those were only in the early models. My 85 had them, but not my 92, 99 or 00s.

I think they made them up to 96. They were known to leak so dealerships had kits to make them solid, like what you find many of in junkyards. My 90 XJ has vent windows. It only leaks if its a pressure washer pointed right at it.

My buddy Brians was a government issue and it has the rubber floor throughout.

My rare option I mentioned at first is still looking to be one of the most rare options.
Ive seen 1 in person and had never even heard about it before that.
