Hey everyone, I just brought home my new old xj. I had a 2008 scion tc and got tired of one a car payment, and two not being able to go down a gravel road without dragging. So i sold the car and bought an XJ.

It is a 2001 yellow 4x4 4.0 auto. I wish it was a standard, but I wanted a yellow one. It is bone stock, was a one owner before I got it, and is about to really change lol. The paint is in good shape, it does has some rock chips and all that good stuff. The bottom inside of the doors has just a touch of surface rust beginning. which i am going to fix very soon. My plans for the jeep are as followed:
OME 3" full lift
front and rear bumpers, i want some type of tube small stinger for the front
some form of black wheels and 31's
bed lined rockers, and flares, (might do that tomorrow but not sure might wait till it gets a bit warmer out.. i don't like spraying bed liner unless it is above 60.

surco roof rack.
lights but not sure what to go with yet.

my electronics from the scion are going in, which are:
DLS components
Boston G5 gtr tuned 12" sub box with the 12 " gtr passive radiator
alpine mp3/cd/hu
elemental design amps.

Windows are getting 5% all the way around except for 20 on the front two.

exhaust and I am making a cai out of my air raid filter i have left over from a 2001 chevy i had.

Welcome to NAXJA!

There's usually a story behind how you came to find NAXJA. Some are interesting, some aren't. What's yours?
