The trans and water damage problems kind of forced our hand on this one. We were going to get the Yukon XL, but they gave us a hell of a deal. I think the dealer wanted it off the VW lot. I still...
Hope so. My wife cried when we traded in the Commander though. Wish we could have kept it too
Traded in the Commander yesterday for this.

It was an awesome Jeep but we just needed to be able to tow more. The...

Picked up a used Go Pro with a bunch of mounts and extra D cards and batteries for $150.00.
hell yeah! I cant wait to get out there next year!
I wonder if you could swap over everything from a JK? It seems plausable. Daveys Jeeps has them and then you could eliminate the rack all together. The JK steering boxes are holding up to 37s...
Gotcha. Ours is headlights in MO and it depends on where you get it inspected.
Best invesment I ever put into that thing was a lunchbox locker. I look forward to seeing the wheeling pics!
Hey a TJ build Lol.
Looks good man. Did you make sure to add a drop pitman arm since you used the track bar bracket. Otherwise you will get some wicked bump steer.
...
Kenda Klever M/Ts. I have to admit I was a little shocked to say the least.
Swapped them out less than 2 years ago. might be worth it though if the front end is already appart
I would not break 7000 lbswith the XK. I am also adding air bags to help compensate for the soft coil sprung rear suspension
Thanks Guys!
Between the new 255.75.17s (which measure almost 33 inches mounted) and the front end sag I cant wheel the XK at all. Hell I can barely take it off a curb too fast and it gets into...
So envious of this it is not even funny.
Time to send off your wheels to OMF and have them switched over to beadlocks....
Looking forward to the videos
So who is going to do it first?
I have a HP dana 30 from a JK sitting in my garage. The Dana 30 would be no problem with 33-36 inch tires. Plus the WJ dana 30 is our bolt pattern but comes with...
Decided to keep the XK for the wife. I will eventually trade my Altima in for a 1/2 ton truck. Just dont do enough towing to justify the big rig.
Updates on some of my junk:

Looks awesome man!
I had an 87 K5 on 35s in High School. Thing was a beast. What kind of trails are you going to use it for?
Only thing you might want to consider is the lower part of that...
Looks like the Commander is getting traded in for an F350. Finally just giving in to getting a tow rig
Doesnt look bad. Driving is more than a clunk, it feels unsafe. kind of like the front end is lose. I wish I could find the cause

Took care of the Upper axle bushing this evening. PITA. Jeep was on a lift and I had air tools. Still took 4 hours. ...
oil based like trans fluid. That was my first thought, but there was soo muh under there I couldnt tell. Probably the lines to the auxilary cooler?
I will check them all now. Thanks man
So I started pulling off all the skids today to hit every bolt with some PB Blaster. I am going to be changing out the upper front axle bushing on Thursday night and wanted to make sure all the...
Love to hear what you think of the MTRs in the snow. they got such ****ty review on the TJ forums, but we have such an advantage.
Yessir. Switching eveything over the aluminum. New tube fenders are 6 lbs for BOTH. Between the bumper GTS, rear corners, fenders, rear bumper and rear flares, I have cut almost 700 lbs off the tj....
