    95 xj

    My new to me 95 XJ



    RC 4.5" short arm lift with control arm drop brackets
    33" MT's
    SYE
    4.56 gears, with lock-rites front and rear (unfortunately I have to remove the front one so I can flat tow it....)
    Custom bumpers front and rear (winch needs repaired)
    Rock Rails


    Plans - needs armor, all it has is bumpers and rock rails so I need to protect the rest of the undercarriage.. and thats it for the short term. It runs great, so I'm hoping to break it in a RC soon.

    I guess I should post something just to keep it current

    It's still sitting in Matt's yard.. I was hoping to be able to flat tow it, but from day one it didn't return to center and would go to full lock when turning while it was in tow. First we figured it was the front locker, so out it came.. still didn't work. With some research we figured it was that the caster was way off, so Matt made a spacer but apparently the angle is still off so it needs at least one more spacer. Hopefully that will allow me to flat tow, since the steering wheel will want to return to center if the caster is correct.

    I also haven't been able to register it since we moved and haven't closed on a house yet, so I can't be a resident of anywhere to be able to get a plate. Hopefully soon we'll be closing on a house so I won't be scared towing it 2+ hrs with no plates..

    Unrelated to all of that, I'm starting my wish list...
    Diff covers - http://www.maxbilt.com/max-bilt-diff-cover.html

    I still need to research and measure for some of the undercarriage protection, because I guess the transfer case cross member has 2 different lengths.

    I'm hoping to run it at RC on the Oct 27th weekend, without any armor, so I guess I'll just figure out what needs to be the priority that way since I'll be running with all you daily drivers

    You can still flat tow with a luchbox locker up front. I have a spartan in the TJ and it flat tows fine.

    Probably solinoids on the winch, $40.

    Just a heads up on diff covers too, solids were cheap as hell
