well this escalated quickly, I read the rules and dont have a problem leaving the beer at home. and by bogger i didnt mean ruining the land and trails, going off trail makin my own. the small town im from its quite normal to have a couple brew (responsibly) and there isnt any exceptions on where to go wheeling for the most part.. Either way im here to enjoy the trails and have some fun. thank you to the people who were reasonable about pointing me in the right direction.

Welcome to the site.  As mentioned and I'm sure you noticed the people on here are pretty passionate about the club and the respect for our trails.  Hope you find a rig to build up and we can see you on the trails.

I have nothing useful to add in regards to xj's so I will stop with that.

Yeah that looks like an awesome mod for an AW4! More in-depth than just the 1st-2nd gear lockout! Thanks for sharing :)

Forgot to mention, matched with the rail shifter if you wire in a torque converter lock up switch you can have engine retardation when going down hills as well. Super easy install. Autos for the win!

Check out this Wiki, it made it easier to narrow down the components to look for in a XJ

Pfffffft.... says the guy who drives an updated version of the XJ. You have a frame and round headlights..... right off the bat you lost 1/3rd of your flex by having a frame, and we have an engine with actual torque.

Wasn't your Jeep your wife's old one?
if we were smart with our money we wouldn't own Jeeps.
Here's your cup of STFU... ENJOY!
