I'm Tony. Lived in Texas all my life. I've had two 4x4s. One was a brand new Chevy 4x4 that I got back in 1983.

The second was this Jeep XJ that I, and my wife, got back in 1998.

After hurricane Rita threatened us and the roads were packed and at a literal sand still, I vowed to modify our Jeep XJ so that we could get to safety in almost any situation.

We have a large family so it has been slow, and frankly my lack of knowledge when it came to 4x4's was outstanding!
I have been a member of several XJ or Cherokee boards, and I have learned a lot in the last 3 years. Not all of it good. :smiley-laughing021:

This is my second XJ, my first was a 5spd 1991 XJ sport, RIP :( oil pump locked up and i tried to save it, but I got my 97 and and love it too.

I've had several Wranglers, before.

Welcome (again). The wife and I were going for a Wrangler when we saw the XJ. We're still going to get one, but then we'll have two Jeeps.

Howdy and wanted to say that this has the potential to be a great forum. I have always had something with 4WD but that has not always been a Jeep. Have had three marques Jeep, Chevy and Dodge. I have enjoyed all three but I have enjoyed the XJ the most.

Thanks. I hope so. There are already several good one's out there. Hopefully we can make this one as good.

I really enjoy seeing what you guys do with your XJs and love sharing my stuff with ya'll.
