Well not complete retirement. Just the extreme stuff. We've already shown what we're capable of as a team and are ready to take it easy. There will still be some projects for the KJ. It still needs bumpers and I have a new idea for the rack so I can carry longer stuff on it with out damaging the lights. I'm just gona get everything tightened up on it like new struts,new rack and pinion and new rear shocks. That way I can have the smooth ride it had when I first put the lift on. I'll be using it off-road a little, like hunting trips, camping and going out of town kinda stuff along with running around town. We've had some good times together...it's almost kind of emotional looking back through all the pics to find this first one. It was taken at Sunflower Mine, one of my favorites. If you're interested in seeing some more old pics of "Lil' Mountain Goat" just check out my older posts starting with the first one.
This will be my new project. An 88 XJ. It's nothin pretty but it has way more potential for off-road applications. Let's just say I can build it for a little more extreme wheelin!
My plans for it right now are to remove the bumpers and do any kind a trimming that it needs. And because jobs are coming in pretty slow right now, I'm gona put a spacer lift on it to start wheelin it. While running it like that I'll start working on a long arm kit to put on it and just order the springs and shocks that I need.
It's a work that's about to be in progress.
