For bump stops I recommended Prothane coil spring inserts, you can get them through summit racing. They work great and I can’t even feel when I hit bump, they work.
So I’m in the process of a build a 96XJ it’s red it actually looks very similar to your bad ass Jeep I’m in the process of swapping a 6.0 LS some 1 ton axles yeah baby it’s work in process. Your jeep is fucking awesome bro good job 👍 🇺🇸💪🏼
Love the jeep I just started moding my 96’ XJ I like the rear bumper and the hood! And you’re a lucky dude you have that Jeep and got that job!? I work my but off and never seem to catch a break when it comes to vehicles or jobs.. but new subscribers here greater truck!
New sub! Well done bro ✅ someday I will be modifying my stock 07 jgc laredo rolled her off dealership w 10K miles now she just hit 181K well maintained replaced plenty of old parts already & she still runs like a champ 🤙 congrats on that new job!
Congrats on the new job man. Like you, I do lots of side jobs as they come and know how hectic it can get, so the channel gets put on back burner. Money doesn't buy happiness but it buys a jeep parts and I ain't never seen a sad person in a jeep. 😄
I hope you have better luck with that Dynomax muffler than I did.I bought the same set up and in less than 6 months the internals of the muffler came loose and caused a major rattle.....
Where in NC are you? I'm over in Elizabeth City. I plan to go out to Uwharrie in a couple weeks. Have made a couple trips out to Windrock and plan to again this fall. Know any other good places out this way to wheel?
Your XJ looks amazing. I got a '97 recently and it has d35/c8.25. It came with 4-4.5 lift on 33s and already cut fenders. I've gone ahead and installed 4.56's so I want to switch to 35's but...I'm not sure if there is anything else I should upgrade to install 35's. Any advice would be great. I'm also planning on maybe changing to 3.5 lift but don't know if it'll clear the 35s. Thank you.
I know you sold this, it’s definitely a beautiful beast.. I’ve moderately built 3 now and sold under the $6.5k range..I now have in my hands a 87 AMC.. I’ve seen all your videos and what you actually sold the XJ for.. my question is.. how much in total non fabricated parts? If that makes sense.. I’m thinking of following your guide and build it similar without the custom fabs and stick to a good alternative for those parts..I will be running 35’s on my build..thanks for any input you may have and CONGRATULATIONS on the gig man..
2 questions bro .... thinking of getting a 4.5 inch rough country lift and trying to run 35 inch tires on that ... but before the new tires im going to buy bushwaker flat fender flares - you think there will be clearance ? And 2nd question where can I find a jeep xj headliner fabric ? Mines sagging inside ... thanks
I’d say that’s the build ima do but with 33s cause your standing so tall yet your tires are 37 you’ll still rub on extreme flex ofc I live in Utah and we have the best Offraod trails so where you are you may be solid
I have fallen in love with the XJ. I’m planning on buying one in the coming two years. Videos like this hold me over until then.
I was super hyped for this notification!! Definitely blessed for that opportunity man. Congratulations my guy💪🏼💪🏼

hockey pucks zip tied together is the best solution 😂
I have a 6.5 inch long arm kit going in mine soon an a 8.8 in the rear hopefully geting a jk front axle as my next mod after thats all done
So much to love about this Jeep; well done!
Lucky thing you went there to get your alignment, enjoy the new job.
Congrats on the job man!! Super stoked about the new video👍
its a beast! love this xj!! and congrats on the job!
Wow...sick looking XJ!! Very nice lift and yet still very daily driver looking. It's beautiful.
Thank you and yes it does great for a daily!
Awww, the dogs are stuck on the balcony. They want to go offroading too!!
They always go!! 😁
@@jcjeeps Nice! The white one looked sad poking his/her nose through the rails.

Congrats on the dream job. Consider flipping steering gear on top of axle, simple to do and you get steering gear out of the way of rocks.
Love your jeep bro
Best of luck on your new job 🤘

Congrats on the new job! Also love your Jeep!
Thank you!!
That is one nice XJ I hope to have one like it some day, the one I have now isn’t worth putting that much into 😂
Like the Jeep man I live in your area have 2001 xj 4.5 lift and 33s should go jeeping sometime
Let’s go dude! Message me on insta!
I'd like that hood on my Jeep XJ!!

Nice XJ!
My son just bought himself an 87’ 4x4 jeep Cherokee . How easy is it to make it bad ass.
She's a beauty 👌
Congratulations
Beauty👍🏻
Your not the first person to not have bump stops installed :
Nice video..
Nice build man! One of the best looking XJ's on the planet! Do you have any plans to upgrade the T-Case?
Sick as fuck bro!! Just got my 95 xj last week 141k miles 2nd owner from my uncle 2200 bucks!

Where can I get that hood at
If Jeep upgraded the interior and made the same physical/mechanical design today in 2021 people would buy them like hot cakes.
With out a doubt it would sell like crazy!
What flares are on it?
Hey i love what your doing would love to link up sometime and ride
Please put the specs and mods in the video description :D
Were can i find a hood like that?
Where can I get this hood
You gonna stiffen the un?
If I was to copy all the suspension ,axles and steering components what would that cost me.
If you did it yourself probably around 8-10k
Wow! Love that XJ! Does it feel like its going to tip over around town?
With the tent it’s definitely a tank to drive. But when the tent is off it actually drives really good!
It's all about the girth😂😂
where are the rims from?
That's a sweet hood. Where did you get it?
It’s a Baja fiber hood they don’t make them anymore unfortunately
@@jcjeeps Bummer...thanks for getting back to me.
which leaf springs do you have?
I can’t remember honestly it’s been so long
Fender model ?
How much uptravel do you have with your build? Do you have at least 4”?
I can’t even remember what it was, seems like about 4-5 in up travel
Do you know of any unibody protection for the xj?
IRO makes good stuff
How did you manage keeping the stock rear drive shaft with that much lift?
Driveline vibes are def there but sye and new shafts are coming soon!
I just got a 97 xj
nice that's one of the best years!
Where did you get the hood ?
Yeah I'd like to know too that hood is very cool
It’s from bajafiber
@@jcjeeps thank you so much awesome xj btw.
Looks great! Did you do frame stiffeners?
Not yet they are sitting in my basement 😁 hopefully soon
Are you running a short arm lift ?Nice Xj.
Yes for now I am but I will be going long arm soon!
98 Jeep needs a new motor, can you point me in the right direction?
Whats the company you purchased your steering setup from?
Barnes 4wd
@@jcjeeps thank
what is the size of your tires and rims?
37/12.5/17
No spare tire!?!?!
Spare tire? Do you run one..
I used to but after going up in size I was worried about the stress on the body
@@jcjeeps I have 35s on mine and it just keeps ruining the spare tire carrier. Considering just takin tire plugs and hoping for the best.
@@jasonmarkley6164 that’s exactly what I ended up doing. I had a 35 on the back and it was just to much
how much did it all cost
I had about 16k in that Jeep after it was finished
What year is your Jeep
Jennifer Higdon it’s a 1996
what's the hood
Baja fiber unfortunately they went out of business s
Hi
I hate building other people rigs . Mainly I hate bolting junk on .
Why the first 1:20 of wasted time! Get to the point!
Finish lol we never finished buddy
America 🇺🇸 💪🏼🔧🔩🤙🏼
37s and still on short arms lmao. You can really tell how much this thing is used lol. Making the xj into the new ricer..
Let me know when you’re ready to start funding me on patreon and I can make it happen.
All that money invested and no long arms? Your XJ would drive and handle far better.
I will be going long arms soon for sure
@@jcjeeps you'll like the way it drives after you do that. Your XJ looks sharp. Nice work 👍
Its a jeep it will never b finished lol
I’d say that’s the build ima do but with 33s cause your standing so tall yet your tires are 37 you’ll still rub on extreme flex ofc I live in Utah and we have the best Offraod trails so where you are you may be solid
