I'll find a (free) place to store it for you so you can wheel it next time.(if applicable) I'll even take it on periodic drives to keep it lubed up. You'll be responsible for getting it back to it's storage location though.

You don't need a lifted XJ to enjoy Winterfest.

Bah. Both myself and Randy, IntrepidXJ, wheeled bone stock at the last WF. Stock is no excuse to not go. If you wanna go on the more difficult trails there's usually an open seat or 3.

you should wheel a stock rig before you modify it anyways, IMO

The tow rig is at the mechanics. He is replacing all three fuel pumps and giving her a going over.(We are getting a WHOLE lot closer to going.)

Want to send your mechanic through the roof? Call his parts supplier and get the prices for the parts you need before he does..... Then negotiate his mark-up with him :firedevil
