Lifted the XJ 2" all round to help clear the 31's. After doing the lift (just springs and shockers so far) I've seen where I need to modify it to get more flex but the long weekend is getting here faster than I can modify stuff.

At least now my previously standard xj now looks like it belongs offroad.

Replaced the whole exhaust (bought a full one in perfect condition for $50!) because my old one was rooted, needed a new cat and muffler.
Bought new O2 sensors, which are awesome! for $75 each and fitted them into the new exhaust.
Also put in a battery meter so i can check up on both my batteries.

Off ebay?
If so i was looking at that as well, but freight ended up too much.
Paint it black and get the plastic over riders from ecb, should cost about $70.

Cut the tube bars off the top, leaving just the lower main front bar.
Paint it black, not gloss.
remove all the factory front trim,
and trim the front of the wheel arch flares so they line up with your new front bar...

thinking along the lines of GoJeep's front bar.
