    Default New member, but JK owner

    Hey Everyone, I’m a jk Owner but I love reading about all Jeep related stuff. Recently found the Jeep talk show and been devouring all the old episodes so that’s how I found out about this place.

    I can’t even remember the last time I saw an XJ in my area. I like them but they seem especially rare here for whatever reason. I drive a 2 door jk but I see what you mean about the 4 doors.

    Yes, they are beginning to disappear. By this time, twenty to thirty year old rigs (mine is 33) are heading for the crusher. They found I think they needed real Jeeps with solid front axles that could carry a family. BTW, many of the front end parts that fit our XJs also fit your JK

    Yup they are getting rarer. I can get a clean late model WJ for less than people are wanting for their XJs around here.
