CEN-CAL-XJS New Build Thread.

Well I got the XJ itch again after being away from Jeeps for quite sometime.

Spec;

1992 Laredo
4.0
AW4
231
30/35
190k Miles.
100% stock.

PO said just stopped turning over one day, Replaced the NSS CPS and Starter, Now running like a top.

So I installed the Rustys Intake I had laying around and a Flowmaster 40 series.

Plans;
TnT Long Arms
DPG 5" All the way around
Soft 8's with Diy4x Beadlocks
35's maybe 36" TSL's
Trimmed
Bedliner Rockers
Dana 44 with Detroit
Alloy 30 shafts with lunch box locker for now.
4.10's
SYE
Smittybuilt 8k winch.

When money isn't tight I hope for Hybrid 60/9 all the way around.

This will be a slow build I only have weekends to work on it.

why 4.10's with 35's or 36's? why not 4.88's?

I already have those axles with 4.10's in them, figured I'd save a buck.

Plus it won't be a DD.
