Last pic of it It went to a family friend so I'm sure I'll get to see it and drive it again.

Bye jeep

It left last night. Felt so relieved.

im listing my xj for sale soon if any of you are interested. basically asking what i have in it for parts even though it needs the head redone. everything else only has 400 miles on it. 4k if anyone is interested.

i was so close to buying a loaded 4x4 05 yukon with 80k miles a couple years ago. until i got it on the lift at my buddies shop and saw the rusty undercarriage. after talking to the owner she lived in pennsylvania which is where she bought the yukon and drove it to texas. wasnt about to deal...
