Well guys i spent most of the morning cutting off all the body off the XJ... i have it down to pretty much the frame and the roll cage.... i know most of you said it looked like a POS and too not waste my time but in my opinion its gonna come out looking pretty good once im done with it... either way here are some updated pics
i have to say im very disappointed on how thin the frame is... maybe im used to the almost 1/4" thick my CJ Frame has but this one looks super week...
tomorrow im gonna trim off the excess floorboard that are still attached to the frame and cut out some of the tubing i dont need and give it a coat of black paint....
it still has a lot of work but it will slowly get their....
just in case you guys didnt see what it looked like before this was it:
let me know what you guys think

the "frame rails" are just thin steel channel to give the body some rigidity, and most people usually plate those rails to help toughen em up. your CJ has an actual frame under it thats why it looks stronger.
