As I'm rebuilding the new XJ (ok, primarily just moving parts from one to the other) I have had some time to reflect on what I have and what I bought and what I wish I bought.
One of my biggest regrets is spending the money on SuperFlex arms while still choosing to go with fixed lowers. I'm really happy with how they work but I keep beating my head against the wall every time I think that it was only a few bucks more to get the adjustable lowers to match the adjustable uppers.
Another one of my regrets is when I chose to go with 4.11's when I was getting ready for 31's. I know it's one more of those debates which gears are better for what tires... well when I had the 4.11's and 31's I regret not having 4.56's.
On the other hand I am really happy with my front and rear detroits and 4.88's and 33x1250's.
OK, that's enough of my rambling... how about the rest of you? Recently we had a lot of people asking about what to do... what to get and I figure they might appreciate some thoughts about everything or a single thing from those who have been making the mistakes for a while now (lets face it... all of us have made at least one mistake when it comes to our xj's).
