HI all,

Im MItch, Ive had my XJ for just over 3 and a half years and I finnaly lifted it with a 4.5 rustys spring pack, 32" BGF TAKOs, and just recently a SYE.

I found out about the club on a dark rainy night when I saw the flier on my jeep the week after I lifted it.

so here is bumper to bumper of what is done to my jeep:

HID bi xenons with Rampage housing

auto zone special fog light housing modified to have HIDs

new Raidator

3 FFH Dynamics electric fan kit

K&N intake

Optima red top

Jasper rebuilt 4.0

Edge Performance Chip with throttle body

Viper 791

Overhead console upgrade

Kenwood headunit

Infinity reference 5 1/4 all the way around

2 12" MTX subs and amp

1F cap

Strobes

CB

rear 5 windows have 5% tint

and a few more randum things that I just cant think of at the moment

Future plans

1" blocks on the rear and spacning out the front acos to have 5.5" of lift

adj ucas

upgraded steering

and still looking for bumpers that I like better than stock

little bit about me:

I live in Dundee, my jeep is my DD, I work at Best Buy in South Elgin FT. I go to ECC FT, and I usually have some sort of tinkering going on with the jeep.

So thats pretty much me, and if you see my on the road and have a cb, you can usually hail me on ch 30

Hey Mitch! 

Welcome to the forum! We need to get you out wheeling before year end.

BTW, your best mod to the jeep is definitely the HIDs! I love mine!

Yeah, the HIDs are sick! and I still need you back over so I can do a better job on your tim. I cant belive they actually sent that out with the polarity reversed.

I have plans for getting it dirty, and have gotten it pleanty of dirty already, but im kinda careful because it has had alot of new paint over the last year due to some mishapps.

Ill work on posting some pics of it here. but here is a slideshow to cure your current curocity

I couldnt beat the price (thanks Shawn!)

But its gonna go up an inch once I figure out my front axel. Then it will get 33"s and regeared w/speedo when the BFGs are warn out

and yes, they dont self clean at all at low speeds, and how far they stick out they throw like no other

in these 400 posts I going wheeling once, fixed atleast 100 problems with my jeep. sold nothing, help fixed/fixed/modified things on  7 other jeeps in the clubs directly. broke 1 part that was upgraded, and made myself look like an idiot countless times.

 

Thanks for putting up with my Guys and Galls! You guys are the best!
