ok so here that thing i just pick up a 2000 XJ

i have started working on it but my progress is gonna be slow so no posting requests for updates! if you want just follow along and i keep you as up to date as possible

In the Beginning:
Patroit Blue XJ

First MOD
3" Rusty's lift
32" Baja Wide Track a/t's
and bushwacker Flares!

then i added my Rusty's Sticker! :-)

i also stripped off all the badges... thought it looked cleaner and everyone can tell its a jeep...

the next mod is a rear drawer/sub box set up for the trunk. its gonna be sick :-) prolly have pics this weekend :-)

looks great! I was thinking about picking up a used set of those wheels - they look pretty slick

how do you like the lift? does it ride good for you? how much lift did you get out of it?

Sounds good, Only reason Im putting the same lift on this week. Im wondering if I had to wait for the SYE to come in the mail first.

ok so this weekend i had a friend of mine (also a Jeep owner and a body guy) paint the raido cluster bezel the same color as the body of my XJ. i think it looks awesome!

then i took a minute while the paint was drying to take a fgfew pics of my Cherokee and his Wrangler.

then i gave the ol' XJ a bath :-)

so far that all did a little more work of the storage drawers/sub box combo. have pics up soon.
