Swapped diff fluid for the winter. Need to get some dex for the transfer case and maybe rebuild the front driveshaft.

They were raked from the factory, but the front wheel well is taller than the rear.

Okay okay, I yield. Guess I remembered wrong. Not like there are any new XJs left...

I know, I know. I started on Jeep forum and am basically a veteran on there. It's dying out as much as I hate to say and this one is very active so I made an account. I made a NAXJA to hopefully meet some local wheeling buddies.

Almost ran over a prius this morning.

They decided that the two car-lengths I had between my lifted 4x4 with steel bumpers and no ABS was entirely too much space for the conditions: rush hour, raining, and attempting to exit.

So they swooped in and immediately slammed on their brakes, about 3 feet from my bumper. I probably came within 4 inches of destroying their car.

I ordered a dashcam.

Thank you for reminding me that I need a dashcam now as well
