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

Thank you I look forward to receiving ideas for improving my XJ. My 99 GSA model was delivered to the parks service in Oregon. I bought it in Flagstaff AZ with 73,000 back in "03", now pushing 200,000. I have lifted it 4", replaced the rear end to a 8.8 Ford when the Chry. 35 quit. Now there is 4 wheel disk brakes and we are running 17" Rubicon wheels. Just bought a 62mm throttle body and spacer, looking for better power curve. The front has a crawler bumper and winch (9000), next is rear bumper to move the spare outside.
My background is in the auto parts business with NAPA as a sales manager. Now retired and hold a real estate license. I roam Arizona, Utah to fly fish, camp, and ski. The XJ hauls a tent trailer for most of my travels, I'm not into the total roughing it.

Sounds like a good start thee Bryan. I use mine as a wandering camp rig too. They work so well for that

I plan to post photos soon, I use it almost every day and have tried not to have it look to off-road. Yet have what I need when I need it.
