The at's are GREAT!

They are slightly taller than the real ones, and everyone that sees them thinks they are 32's.
They are quiet, and they grip great.

Led's- ( I didn't do any dome light mods.)

Well this post is a day late and a buck short. If you are currently still running the RE Super-Flex 3.5 what shocks did you decide to go with? I've read about the RE Monotubes and the OME shocks for this lift, just not quite sure what the appropriate shock is to not limit the flex. Also, did you need to drop the transfer case and/or install a SYE or CV drive shaft? Looking to do the same lift on my new (purchase a week ago) '01 Classic. Any response is appreciated!

^^ Get the OME shocks that are made for 3.5"-4.5" of lift. I have those on my 4.5" lift and they work great, they have a ton of travel.

Man, I love your setup! I'm subscribed to this thread to get ideas for what I want to do to my XJ once the wife lets me start modding, . I modded the crap out of my other car and then she let me get the XJ (my second toy) but she won't let me mod it for 6 months, .

Thanks man, Im really loving my Jeep right now.

Next is more armor, new u joints, an sye, and a rear locker.


The homebrew discos were made with tine pins, and clips. I hated them. They were noisy, and hard to use. I now have RE gen 2 discos.

Any pics on how you wired the off-road lights? I'm looking to add some lights to my factory bumper real soon.

Thanks

It was pretty basic.

I ran the wire through the hood latch cable hole in the firewall, across the back of the header panel, relays on the left side, and then threaded the wires to the lights through the front cross member.
