    CmmdrDan's Garage

    Well this is going to be fast at first cause its the past 6 months.
    I have a 2006 Commander (XK)
    When I bought it, it had 32,002 miles on it.
    It is a 3.7L with the QTI 4x4 system.
    Yes it is a baby system with no 4lo but I have yet to encounter any problem with it. I haven't had the chance to go offroad to much but that may change this weekend.
    Well I guess I'll start by saying for some reason I don't have any pictures of the day I got it. :nono:
    First is a snow picture from Christmas.

    heres what i have in my box for now.
    then I did a spark plug change.

    Im planning on getting 4xguard's new rear sliders.
    I want to paint the stock wheels black to kinda black out everything. That's all for now. Ill try to update this when stuff happens.

    Ohh this is my favorite picture of the XK


    The first thing I did was added some cheap lights to the front. My dad had this light "wing" license plate holder on his truck. He gave it to me. I hooked these light up with my fogs. that way they are all on with one switch.


    After that I bought a front tow hook from a member here. Heres a pic of the hook and bumper back on.


    This was cool to find under the grill cover.

    Well I ordered a set of Saguaro4XComponents 5/8 shackle mounts. They are beefy!

    Got them installed in less than an hour.

    Side view

    They look great and are gonna be a lot more functional than the stock tow hooks.
    And my girlfriend said they look like Nipple Rings..

    Lookin good man.

    Quick question on the light setup.... did you use a relay to activate the new fogs? If not, I would highly recommend it.
