Just in case some others haven't seen on facebook.
Need to do bumpers (got this set up for the weekend after I get back from vacation), fix headliner, redo front brakes, have windshield replace, get CB antenna (non magnet) and replace thermostat (tstat is more a comfort before winter thing). Also, due to tires being wider then my old ones (which were wider then my stock ones), I am getting new rims in October. I figured there would be full lock issues and the stock rims are pretty much crap anyway. I also need to have a new spare put on (though I mentioned it three or four times at the tire shop, they neglected to order one and I leave for vacation Saturday).
I got to say, I love the way it rides now. Didn't realize how shot my old suspension was. If I wasn't working, probably would have left the tire shop and went straight to badlands. The urge to drive it almost daily is back again and I can't wait to see what it will look like after everything is said and done for this phase. In the end, it cost me a bit more then I wanted to spend and I should have taken Brian up on his deal, but life goes on.
I will also add, yes, I went with Goodyear MTR's. After seeing how a friends Jeep did off road with them, I liked them. Snow reviews are mixed, but I have six miles round trip to and from work if it snows, it shouldn't be an issue for me.
When we picked it up, my wife noticed the XJ and said that looks awesome. I can't wait to let her actually do some wheeling in it.
