Diggn the bar clean-up!
BTW I do collect original XJs. Have saved one from Idaho and Montana in the last couple years. Plus we (AmericanCherokeesUSA) have tons of parts and me personally am a Parts Director with 35 years XJ knowledge. Always happy to help

They are hard to find not junked out and cut up these days. Glad someone is saving them!

[@chappyd5109]

Good job. Simple, straight forward and looks great. I wish you much success...

[@machinesinc]

Thanks Chappy!

[@moosepacks]

LOOKS BADASS!

[@machinesinc]

Not as badass as hand made MoosePacks

[@dawabbitt3079]

I prefer the original - it looked 'meaner'. To each, their own - as they say.

[@machinesinc]

For sure. They make them that way for a reason, a lot of people like it haha

[@toddhansen8831]

Nice I agree looks much better

[@machinesinc]

Thanks!

[@arnoldcars8227]

Yeah it looks clearer like that

[@machinesinc]

Thanks!

I bought a really nice bumper that didn't have the the bull bar supports. I ended up hitting an outside edge and tweeking the edge upward on it... I had to scrap the whole thing. Bummer because I really like the bumper and it's not made any more

[@machinesinc]

That is a total bummer. Sometimes they can be repaired. I have a video on repairing my rear bumper

[@StandAloneAdventures]

Looks awesome!!! Where did you purchase your front bumper from?

[@machinesinc]

The front bumper was on the Jeep when I got it. It’s about the only thing that hasn’t been changed out haha.

Where do the west coast chopper pedals go?

[@machinesinc]

Hucked off the roof for sure haha

[@danielmeraz1628]

Does the bumper have tie in brackets?

[@machinesinc]

It has the standard 3 bolt mount on each side. But not the full length ones that go behind the steering box bolts.

[@officialWWM]

No obstructions in front of the headlights…also, no protection for the headlights…

[@machinesinc]

True, but that’s why I mentioned the style that loop around the headlights. I think that style provides full protection with minimal downsides. I think this style provides minimal protection with a few downsides.
