1. Lower the XJ a little (cut the front springs, and rebuild the rear leafs)
2. Put in the gauge package into the XJ, change sensors
3. Change the CPS in the XJ (can you tell which Jeep is getting neglected?)
4. Put a winch bumper/winch on the MJ.

Probably more.... there is PLENTY of time to break parts between now and NAC-Fest...:D:D

Do you even want to see my list? :D

I am truly jealous of a lot of you guys who have drivable XJs.
 
Get some real tires :roflmao:
Swap to 99+intake and APN header
Brown Dog Motor Mounts
Get shorter rear shocks
Redo tranny lines
New radiator hoses
Durango Box + WJ PS pump (my box is on it's way out)
Recharge A/C (yes I'm a girl)

That should pretty much do it.

Doesn't compare to your "list" Bill :D

You are lucky, most of that stuff isn't required to still make the trip.
Oh, and don't try to compare. This isn't a biggest list wins contest, far from it!
 
Wanted to bring the Grand Cherokee this year to NAC-Fest but ended up selling that to a friend a few months ago. The wife doesn't want me bringing her 98XJ this time to RC so that only leaves the stock 94 Country I just bought. Replaced the entire passenger and driver floorboards. Added a JCR stage two rear bumper, towhooks up front, and front and rear Riddler diff covers.

Sooo it begins..things to get done: 1)Lift, 2)tires, 3)JCR stage 2 sliders in addition to a bunch of other stuff I'm sure I'm forgeting. Problem is I'm broke right now. I own a Jeep. Just Empty Every Pocket
