I plan too add a few Modifications too my Jeep, nothing to big though, just enough to make it unique and not so stock looking.

I have a 99' red XJ

For now not sure, but I was thinking about some sort of new front end like a grille guard or something, I was looking at an ARB bumper but too expensive for me haha, so if i can find something cheaper, then maybe I will consider a lift but not too big, probably just 2-3 inches, and I would like some driving lights as well, right now I am in the brain storming process.

You should post some updates Marshall! I know for a fact your jeep is no longer the stock red xj it once was. Looks really good sitting on what you have now. Why not update the group and post a new pic of it a it is today :)

And I absolutely have to agree with Trevor here...

Cool but dont do this....

Once you paint it black, it will become very unstable, and you will end up spilling your coffee... Like this..

I did a Google search for "hot trannies" but nothing came up about oil coolers  :o

Worrying too much about mpg with a Jeep is similar to worrying about your sister's virginity. An ok thing to be concerned about but...

That lakers fan across the way is likely thinking "wow....  He can tackle the crack, and his swaybar is still connected too!" Now I want an XJ!!
