No real changes yet. The reservoir clamps came in for the Bilsteins, but I'm still waiting on the shocks.

Took the girlfran with me for a little drive.

I laughed taking this, becuse it was picking up the rear tire, and with the weak factory limited slip, just spinning.

I live off Beach and Ellis. Yep, that was taken at Holy Jim. It's close, and it's not extreme by any means, which is perfect for a nearly stock XJ haha

Stock XJs get stuck a lot around here. They don't do well in silt or sand.

Depends on your idea of stock. I consider tires open so if a XJ is on 235/75/15 BFG At's........they actually do fine. I went through high school outside PArker.....I know what its like out there.

Ahhh...Holy Jims, was a daily ritual when it wasn't Football season, my first vehicle was an '88 Wrangler on 30's, I still live "down the street" from the Canyon.

And x75002 on the Stock XJ....crazy capable, great trail size/wheel base, air down a little bit, and if the limited slip is acting up, drag the brakes a little bit

Couldnt find anything before I have the lift on. I emailed Jim to post up some pics. I know he has some from the day we ran Cleghorn and he unbolted his sway bars in the staging area. hahaha
