Excellent Jeeps, who cares what anyone thinks about your build. As a Jeep guy I am glad to see one that looks nice and not all cut up. I dig it.

Thanks for putting this video together 👍😊. I ran a 93 XJ for 26 years. Sold it 2019 and bought black 2001 XJ Classic like yours. Was in fantastic shape and then I put about 10 grand in new parts and labor to make it even better. Ran it to Maine from Florida. Then ran it to North Dakota. Love it bone stock 😊. Yours turned out Amazing 👍😊. Long live the XJ!

I got a similar jeep here in Central California RWD, 4.0, 232k miles for $2000. Yours actually looks even cleaner. My paint needs a polish and 2 smallish dents repaired,

Looks Great! Who cares what other people think its your car you can do what you like. I just got an XJ and I'm in New Zealand also an old school Mopar Guy that wanted something 4WD to play in but wanted to keep it in the family so to speak AMC/MoPar also own a 64 Valiant wagon and 68 Dart 2 Door (planned super stock 440 big block build) can you imagine picture a 64 wagon towing a Dart to the Drag strip just screams Kool eh!👍😎

That front and rear ends are going to rub a lot more once the vehicle is loaded plus additional accessories. That headliner came out really nice 👍

Looks nice. Sure would be more capable, in accordance with the tires and suspension, with a cheap lunchbox locker in the front. But real nice.

Awesome man and good work. You don't have to apologize to anybody for anything... the Jeep "community" by large is friendly and to each their own, it's when you find yourself on FB or group pages that all these selftitled experts come from outta nowhere spewing their hate 😅 usually "shitbox" owners too! One of my biggest complaints about the Jeep community is the lack of upgrading the braking system after having installed larger wheels and tires, or junkyard brakes being considered an "upgrade" it's the one thing I'd like to see change in the community as far as upgrades and modifying go. I love the Smittybilt stuff myself. Very nice XJ and love the wheelie wagon! 👍 totally reminds me of my HotWheels as a kid & Ratfink.

Rather than drilling a new mount hole for the track bar, I opted for the Rough Country sleeve adjustable track bar. This allows you to adjust the track bar without having to unbolt one end to adjust it. Nice build! Running 33 x 12's on my with 4.5" lift. God bless, stay well. Bumble Jeep was also too clean to cut.

That think is bad ass! I love a budget build that is solid, looks awesome and works! Felt like I was watching me. I have 2 TJs - one budget and one expensive (LS swap and you name it). The budget drives like a dream and is bad ass. I learned one think about the rough country lift - cheap and works with just a little vibration in the rear. But way better if you ditch the pan drop and go with adjustable rears, SYE and a Tom Woods. (Invincible)

My kit from skyjacker came with a "track bar relocation bracket" but I still ended up purchasing an adjustable track bar which is perfect for dialing the whole thing right in.

Headliners trash! what does glue naturally do in excessive heat?…melts!! That headliner will be sagging in no time! I just did mine only I went material-less, cleaned it all off good then spray it with two whole cans of flex seal, let dry then sprayed it with 2 cans of interior flexible paint in grey color! Looks amazing, feels great and is super cool in this rare early season heat😊 love love love your xj though man no hate all tips
