Hi JTrowww, :welcome: to the :xjtalk: forum!

We would love to know more about you and your Jeep. How you found us, etc...

Be sure and check out our XJ TALK SHOW! (http://podcasts.xjtalk.com) It\'s about Cherokees! It\'s like a radio talk show, but from the Internet.

Check out our sister sites, http://www.WranglerTalk.com/ and http://www.di-dah-dit.com/

Hey everyone! So can't begin to tell you how many times google has brought me to this site and a few others whilst trying to figure out what's wrong with my jeep(seems so common something is broke I'm more worried now when everything seems right lol)

Anyway! About me:

Names Joe/Joey/Joseph(depends on who you ask or who's mad at me.. Love ya mom!)
22 years old
Live in central Indiana

Just got into jeeps early last year, before this was always a tuner car and v8 gear head.

Started with a 99 sahara wrangler was a an absolute great jeep until the transmission went out late last year(we have since parted ways sadly :/ )

Then bought a 93 YJ wrangler which I putt around in back and forth to work and hate it(nice jeep it's a very love hate relationship mostly because it's just not my old TJ..)

And just last week I picked up my first XJ as part of parting ways with my first wrangler! Which has led me to finally decide to just sign up on here and hopefully make friends and get much needed help with something so new to me

So bear with me I haven't been a part of a forum since I was like 16 so hopefully I get up to speed again...

My XJ
2001, red, auto, a smidge over 200k(was a DNR vehicle almost all it's life)
Custom front and rear bumper, rockers cut out and replaced with solid sliders, bushwacker flares, 5 in total KC's, basket rack on top
Rugged ridge adjustable ties and control arms, 4.5" pro comp lift all the way around(starting to sag in the rear a bit, my guess is because it's a cheaper lift)
And on 31x11.5x15's
Currently no sway bar or SYE or Tcase drop which is odd to me it has next to no issues, a little wobble in the front but it's being taken care of

Plans for it it are a
better lift, mostly because I'd like to install it for myself and know 100% what's underneath it
Different tires, not a fan of the AT style sts swampers
And other than that just little TLC fixes and clean ups here and there. It's not the
Daily so it's something to toy with and build as needed.

Probably tons of stuff I'm forgetting and heck maybe if you're from the Indy area you may know or seen it

My Sahara as clean as it ever was

Nice trio! Shame about the tj but that xj is sweet enough to make up for it! Never seem that bumper before, do you know of its homemade?

Welcome to xjtalk. There's no stupid questions here, so feel free to ask away.

Thank you! The TJ was my baby, but I guess always on to bigger and better things...

And yes actually the bumpers are homemade! I'll try to throw up some picture of the front and rear, local guy about 15 min from me can make them out of the back of his garage. Not 100% if he does all kinds of custom work or is just a jeep guy but the bumpers are def solid and are VERY well done.

I'm sure I'll have all sorts of questions with this thing lots of little things here and there
