Thanks for the invite, man. Looking forward to seeing what this place is about.

Here's the main XJ I throw money at.

It's an '86 Pioneer. I did a lot of it on the cheap, but stats are as follows.

Drivetrain: 2.8L/TF904/NP207
Axles: D30 & 29 spline 8.25 w/ No-Slip
Tires: 33x12.5x15 SS TSL on the trails and 31x10.5x15 Mastercraft Courser MTs on the road, running 3.75 backspacing on both sets
Lift: 3" coils & xj/xj bastard packs, JK shocks up front/F150 in the rear, JY fixed lowers
Armor: Farm Boy tail light boxes, JCR Tcase skid, JKS LCA skids, old style Rustys prerunner front bumper, Ruff Stuff 8.25 diff cover, D30 diff guard
Recovery: Gorilla 10k Winch
Others: Brown Dog motor mounts, shortened Explorer front drive shaft, Ruff Stuff stiffeners, factory TJ Hella lights

Probably forgetting stuff, but that's the gist of it.

My other Jeeps include a '88 two door, '92 four door, '94 ZJ and '94 YJ.

Wow, Tony. Didn't even realize you had that many. Could start your own club. :D Jeeps looking good, you must have done even more to it recently.

Yeah, I do have, um... a few more than probably needed. In my defense, the YJ is trail only, the ZJ should be trail only and the '88 is sitting on jack stands going no where fast. I just picked up the '92 to turn into a dd as the '86 continues its slide from dd to dedicated trail rig. It's been going through a lot of changes and there's more to come.
