    Default 98 XJ (the polar bear)

    i picked this up from a friend, i helped him build some of it and now hes planning on leaving the country so i picked up up.

    98 XJ, 4.0L, AX15, NP231, 30 front (4.56 gears, locker, big daddy steering, over the knuckle), dana 35 rear (4.56 gears, detroit, super 35 kit), 35"BFG's, 7-9 inches of lift.

    ive done a few more things since i picked it up like a full tune up since i know its been over 4 years since its last one. hood vents that i paid all of $4 for since theyre soffett vents for a house, but hey... they work... dropped my engine temp by 10 degrees. one storage rack installed, planning on building a storage drawer also. power inverter installed, on board air in the works, need to install my warn 8274, custom snorkel, and dual batteries, new wheels, inner air locks, blah blah blah.

    now onto what everyone wants "PICTURES"

    thanks ya it is and its my daily driver.

    not much picture worthy done today, but i replaced u-joints and re-installed the front driveline, replaced wiper blades, adjusted my park brake so i actually have one, and installed this to keep the dogs in the back and to keep camping gear (i.e. sleeping bags, clothes bags) from falling on my kid in the back seat.



    i like it better than a dog barrier because i can just unhook one side and roll it over to the other side. its a net tailgate from a mini truck.

    re-organized my side storage, and finished up my OBA

    second battery and isolator location, the air filter is temporary









    the box has my air compressor and 2 gallon tank in it, i built the box out of plywood and 1X2's, then bed lined it, and built the front piece and door out of metal.
