    What to do w/ XJ?

    I'd take $13,000 right now and it's yours, but very willing to negotiate. I'd prefer to sell as a whole. The rear bumper is welded into the frame. I'm going to attempt to do the pics.

    My XJ is going to be replaced this summer by I don't know what yet. How can I get the most money out of it? Do I part it out or sell it privately? Specs: 2000 patriot blue 87k mi D44 rear w/ ARB & 4.56 ARB/WARN 30/30 kit w/ 4.56 6" Rubicon Express Hybrid Custom rear bumper and tire carrier ARB...

    Krawlers on the 30

    after reading the Ultimate Adventure article and just hearing general consensus on the krawlers, it's not that the tires are too heavy but more so that they get wwwaaaaayyyyyy too much traction and the resulting stress that has on the axle is too much for a lot of axles to bear. they cost a...

    Maine Wheeling

    Thanks guys I appreciate the input. I think my jeep would do fine (6" 33s ARBs f/r etc) it's just the 2000 mile trek from utah to maine that worries me. im not sure what it is holding my jeep together, but it seems like nothing short of a prayer. its a high mileage 2000 that im planning to trade...

    Maine Wheeling

    Hey, I'm going to be going to college in Maine and wanted to know what to expect in terms of wheeling. I'm guessing there's a bit of mud, water, and not much rock. What's the most important thing to have for wheeling in Maine, what's the thing I want to leave home in Utah? Thanks

    Bumper Reccomendations

    I would do the ARB Bull Bar for the front. I've had it for a couple years so far and won't buy another vehicle unless an ARB can be put on. I've beaten the hell out of mine and nothing's happened. I even pulled out a Dodge Ram by yanking from the Bull Bar- didn't budge. It might be expensive...

    chopping out the rear fender wells, do i lose strength

    the amount of strength you lose depends on where you're cutting it and how much you cut it. in the wheel well if you cut past the pinch seam you'll lose a lot of strength, but i'm pretty sure it can be welded back together. also, if you cut the rear quarter panel, there ends up being a gap...

    Driving to Nicaragua

    I figured maybe a few of you have driven through Mexico. I've read a couple articles in 4WD&SU about wheeling in Baja, and it sounds like as long as you have the right insurance and nothing illegal, it shouldn't be too bad. But then again I've also heard the legends about people never coming...

    Snorkel

    How about this thread ends right now? For those like Beezil who think the snorkel is a poser mod, your entitled to your opinion. When you're up sh*t creek without one, though, don't plan on me offering to winch your ass out. :wave: See ya!

    Snorkel

    It bugs me every time I hear someone saying it is a poser mod. With 6" of lift and 33's, I doubt that I'll come across water deep enough, about 3.5 feet, to hydrolock my engine. BUT, you never know how deep it's going to be, and sh*t happens. The snorkel is a good buy, I'm going to do one this...

    Rear Dana 44

    This might not be exactly what you're looking for, but: I have a D44 that I bought brand new in March of this year, custom made for my XJ. It has an ARB air locker and 4.56 gears, and set up for ABS. Make an offer no less than $1500.

    Interior Cage How Much?

    Hi, I want to put an interior cage into my 2000 4 dr. I'm not going to be doing this myself, but having a shop do it. Say labor was $60/hour, how much should I expect to pay for the final result? I want to have it painted, but figure that would be pretty costly as it's in a hard to get to...

    Bad idea?

    Do you think that it might be a bad idea to leave my current 2000 XJ with 90k miles for another one, same year, with less miles? I would take my axles and bumpers onto the new one. OR wait a couple years, wheel this thing till it breaks it half(when there is no trade-in value whatsoever) and...

    4 door Wrangler

    I have to say that, having a liberty and a cherokee, the 3.7 V6 is my preference. granted, it doesn't have as much low end torque, but that engine is a much better balance of highway compatibility and off road performance that the 4.0 that pretty much sucks on the road. I live in a very...

    will it ever get better?

    ACTUALLY!!!!! I had a Liberty before the XJ!! I gave it to my brother, but I actually thought about buying it back and FINALLY making a Liberty that could DO IT ALL!! P.S. Liberties are great cars and have as much off road capability in stock form as an XJ. But here is the final decision....I'm...

    will it ever get better?

    I appreciate all of the advice and input. The trackbar is tight like no other. I believe caster and toe relate to the angles of some part, but I have no idea, sorry- I like to drive my Jeep and not worry about it. There really isn't another vehicle on the market that meets the qualities of an...
