Hi DanB98TJ, welcome to the xjtalk forum!

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

Check out "Announcements" "How to post an image" for help posting images.

Got a Wrangler? Maybe a friend with one? http://www.WranglerTalk.com/

Thanks guys! I stumbled on the site from a google search looking for some mod ideas.

My current Jeep is a '96 XJ Country. I picked it up about two years ago to replace my '98 TJ, which I had built for the more extreme, technical trails, but no longer did. It was a handful to drive on the road and I didn't feel comfortable putting my newborn daughter in it, so it was time to get something more practical.

The XJ currently has a Rocky Road spacer/shackle lift, but other than that and some homemade rockers and front bumper it is stock. I'm running 30x9.50x15 BFG ATs for now. I don't plan on getting too carried away with this build, but still have some mods planned for the future: rear bumper, skids, crossmember, maybe a little fender trimming and 31's. I'd also like to swap out the NP242 for a NP231 and regear to 4.10s.

Hopefully these pics will work:

EDIT: I guess they don't work. If anyone is interested, there are some pics of the XJ and a ton of pics of the TJ here:

Welcome Dan

There are directions on the Home Page for posting pics. Establish a free Photobucket account and use its free image hosting service. Then they will show up.
