    Looking good man! You've really come a long way since the beginning of this project. I can't wait till you get this monster out of the garage under her own glorious power!!

    Man I've never seen a boatside on a XJ even if it is a semi-V hull. That's RAD ! You're really making me want to build a XJ.

    My plan is to do a hybrid cage in the lines of something like this. Should be interesting. I’ve never been a huge fan of full exo cages. 3CCA6BAE-8549-41DC-BDF3-03F8F6D5A5C8.jpg

    3 inch zone lift. Fox 2.0 shocks. 35 inch nitto ridge grapplers. Bushwacker flat fenders. No name steel bumpers front and back for now.
    That would look pretty good. I think, if I were to do that I would at least put a couple runs over the rear quarter panels and tail lights. Could possibly save from blowing out some glass and hours of shopvac'ing lol.

    Eh not really concerned about the quarter panel tubes since I’ve got the armor on the panels. Should be ok with that. If a window gets destroyed that’s ok haha.
