Thanks everybody! I went to a junkyard I haven't been to before yesterday on my lunch break and found a Cherokee with a hitch in decent condition and it also has a factory front skid plate and factory front tow hooks. I'm taking an extended lunch break today to go grab all that before somebody...

Anybody have recommendations on junk yards in the SLC area that would be good to pull XJ parts? I'm specifically looking for a trailer hitch at this point. I have been going to the PicknPull on 3300 S just west of 15 because it is close to me but they haven't had many XJs and on the 2 they...

I really want to get out there and meet and wheel with you guys in my 96 XJ but feel like I am missing 2 critical things that are keeping me from being able to do it and am currently on a tight budget. I have no recovery points. I am trying to find a trailer hitch for the rear and something for...

I am definitely interested. I need to get some recovery points figured out on the XJ on a very limited budget but if I can get that sorted I'm in. I don't want to be that guy that gets stuck and isn't set up properly to have somebody pull me out.

I am looking for a trailer hitch for my 96 XJ. I blew all my money on a lift and gas tank skid plate and can't get a bumper right now but really need to get some sort of recovery points on there.

I started moving forward with purchasing parts for my lift. I am piecing together my own kit and found some good deals on Amazon this weekend. Here is what I ordered so far. Rubicon Express 3.5" Leaf Springs (RE1463) - $184 for both Rubicon Express 3.5" Front Coil Springs (RE1300) - $100 for the...

Can you expand on what should be needed for a 3" to 3.5" lift. Here is what I think I need. Am I missing anything? I am new to solid axles so am still figuring out all the different components. Front and rear springs Front and rear shocks Adjustable track bar Lower control arms Probably a SYE...

Right now my plan for wheels is 15x8 Cragar Soft 8's. It looks like 3.75" or 4" of backspacing is what is recommended. I'm open to other wheel options but the soft 8's seem to be reasonably priced and will do what I want them to. Do you think I should definitely stick with 31" tires? The...

1996 XJ details AW4 automatic transmission Completely re-manufactured 4.0 after it spun a rod bearing at 162k miles. The re-manufactured engine has less than 1k miles on it so far. I pulled and reinstalled the engine myself but had Clegg Machine do the rebuild. Brown Dog motor mounts Spartan...

How much would you want for the crankshaft? I may be interested in that. I've been looking into re-manufactured engines and so far I haven't found a company I feel super comfortable buying one from. All I read about online is people with engine problems and the companies not wanting to honor...

Hello everybody. I live in Salt Lake City and got myself a 96 XJ with 162k miles on it about 6 weeks ago. Up until a week ago I have been loving it and got out to explore Farmington Canyon. Before I got the jeep I explored Utah in my Subaru Forester which other than poor ground clearance has...

I have a 96 Cherokee with 162k miles on it. I have only owned it for 6 weeks. It developed an engine knock about a week ago. I stopped driving it as soon as the knock started and trailered it home. I ended up dropping the oil pan and discovering that the connecting rod bearing for cylinder #4...
