Sorry for large pics, i "borrowed" my girls camera so i can get some decent shots.

Feeling how the rear is with no SB, ive decidied to definitely get 2" front QDC, it makes the obstacles more fun without em.

I just bought a brand new set of Bushwacker fender flares for $200 for my XJ. I can't wait until they get here. Gotta love Ebay.

I picked a set up last Friday for 100$, only catch was they're for a 2 door and mines a 4 so technically 101.99$ if you include the price of a cut off wheel to make it work.

Not too bad. I bought my set used off a guy on greatlakes4x4 for $250. Hardware included.

Tightened down the shock bolts and nuts, added rear exhaust hanger, riveted the muffler heat shield back tight, swapped the front driveshaft out for the rebuilt one, temporarily fixed both passenger side doors so I can open them from the outside, cleaned the mud I missed out of the rims, cleaned the windows inside and out, and cleaned the mud off my interior doors/dash/steering wheel. Time fer a beer!

started looking at why it didn't start for me yesterday. so far battery is good, starter is good but turn the key and nothing no cranking no clicking. hot wire all the way to starter is reading good. changed the starter relay still nothing tried wiggling the shifter around in park and neutral thinking it may be the NSS. still nothing finally decided to bypass the starter just to see if it would start and run and it does. now i have to go to work and am out of ideas for the day about what the problem is anyway! I'm thinking maybe something in the ignition wire? any suggestions?

Check your main battery cable at the battery; mine was corroded as all hell under the insulation and it gave me a no-start issue. Jeep wants WAY too much for a new one, so build one yourself out of 4 ga welding cable. I've run mine like that for a couple of years without a problem.
