I just got an 88 XJ from my Aunt who drove it around town/highway and has NEVER been put in 4WD! It still smells new inside...and of course I am going to turn it into a rubicon rig.
My goal is to run the Rubicon this upcoming summer so my question to you guys is what do I need to do?
I would like to install a long-arm suspension right away. What is better RE or rusty's? Rubicon Express is 15 minutes from my house but Rusty's seems to have a larger lift and from some people say may be better. Thoughts? My goal is to run 35's although I have a set of 33X12.50 x-terrains sitting around that I may use.
My biggest concern in the axles...while I am prepared to swap them out I am wondering if this will interfere with the suspension I buy. Can I do the suspension first and then swap axles?
I am not looking to build a crazy rockcrawling rig right off the bat. I just want to make it through the rubicon without going too
