Yeah see my skid was so bent that it didn't even rattle. Just straight up made a horrible noise like something in the drive train was messed up. I might straighten it out this weekend and reinstall it with extra spacers. I feel naked without my skids!
My tires are down to like 65-70% tread already due to the crazy mileage I put on my jeep. Next set will be 34's with tube fenders. The 34's might not see this XK though. It will be gone in January.

Haha.. I got a text a 5:30 this morning from my brother saying he sold his gf's lifted Chevy and got $5500 cash for it last night. He is going to hold onto that and come up with the other $3000 between now and January and buy my Jeep. He has three kids and just got his gf pregnant so he needs a 7 pass vehicle. So we shall see what happens. I dont believe anything till there is cash in my hand.Originally Posted by 06JeepXKHEMI
Andrew. It all depends on what type of tire you are going with (MT/AT...not all tires are the same specs). If you want to run a 33 inch MT then the pinch weld will have to be addressed. What I did to mine isnt bad, I just only did the first half and never got around to welding in new sheet metal to finish it off.

Im going MTRs regardless of which size I do, but I cant do the pinch weld like you did, just dont have the knowledge or experience with that..

Keep in mind though I have been modding my jeep for the past five plus years which helped me fit 33's. I have the rear AC delete mod done, cut out the entire pinch weld area, trimmed my front flares, did the sal bumper mod, JBA UCA's, added 1/2 rear lift spacers and extended rear bump stops with a perfect back spaced wheels.
Now with a superlift you wouldn't have to do any of those mods other than find a good back spaced wheel for 33's
