As the XJ's Turn....

I have 2 questions about my XJ, I just installed my RE3.5 and running 31's, looks so sweet and sitting in the driveway looking at it makes me think that it cannot get stuck!!!

I have 2 questions though, what is the difference in the sizes of the wheel well openings on the 96 and older XJ's Vs the 97 + XJ's? which model run has a larger opening?

and my second Q? is how do I mount my spare (its a 31 Bridgestone Dueler AT on a stock steel wheel) on my roof, without seeing any straps or bungee cords? I would like to keep it a clean look, if possible...

thanks !

Have you got any pics of your Rig?

No Pics yet, soon ofcourse!!!

That tire carrier looks ok, however my XJ is full of lights on top, and there is no room in the budget for that as well....so its just gonna have to live with straps and bungee cords....any other ideas???

btt.

Get the stock one from the stealership.

All the wheelwells are the same...

If you've got the factory roof rack (like 95% do) Mopar had a tire carrier that mounted to that. You might see the four little legs uder the tire, but the majority of the carrier was hidden...

Find one of those left over somewhere (doubt the dealer can still get one) They're on ebay every so often, or used to be, anyway...
