Blazed the Oregon Trail
Took her on the Barlow Road "Oregon Trail" as far as I could.....Ginormous Tree fell and blocked it so I had to turn around, but plan on going back in about a month when things dry out a bit....It was super soggy/Muddy

Didn't do much to her todAy bout to check the alignment of my headlights they seem low. I am a bit happy though I finally saw a lifted xj by me before. Only person on here that it might be would be xjblue01. Only jeeps I've seen lifted were GC and wranglers

I also sealed the **** out of my airbox and snorkel because 2 weeks ago I managed to sniff in a little water. Close call.
