I would love to pick your brain about this axle swap. I just got a 2000 xj that has the HP44 and rear 9 inch. But I’m trying to source parts for some maintenance. Idk if this is the best place or some private messaging would be better.

Yeah ask away. Maybe the tech will help someone else too.
 
I built a new grocery getter.
2005 KJ Liberty Renegade.
Popped the bad 42re out, got it rebuilt, slammed it back in. Painted the roof and hood (typical early 2000s bad clear). Did 3 days in the San Rafael Swell and decided it needed a little bit more height.
2.5" spacers, Rocky Road Outfitters UCAs,
Adapters and JL steely takeoffs. 245/75r16 Buncha trimming.
Fun unit.




Wish I knew how to embed photos with the new forum software....

My mistake. You can certainly post photos as a forum user. If you are a NAXJA member, you can post them directly on this site, and have them stored here. This prevents the "missing link" issue experienced by many when Photobucket went to a paid subscription.
