It's in and insured through my dads name right now but I want to put it in my name when the tags are due. I could care less about coverage. Cause if it gets in an accident I'm keeping it for parts since I'm on the hunt for a 5 speed like the xj I have now.

Shackle relocation bracket caused exhaust to point right at the bushing. I cut the exhaust and put a tip on so the busing would not melt. I know, the tip is ghetto for now.

Replaced torn tie rod dust covers with Energy Suspension ones from Autozone. I went to the stearlership and they don't sell just the dust covers. I do not like the Energy Suspension ones. They do not stay on the lip when you tighten the bolt. The pop off and slide back.

I could not find another option.
