1999 Jeep XJ OverLand Build

Got out in the woods with it today. Love it! Not a huge fan of the powertrax locker in the rear, locking and popping at random times. Gonna switch that out for an ARB when I re-gear.

And now this crap just driving home from work... stupid asphalt... That's a broken old joint next to a broken new joint. Long story, maybe replacing axles... more to come. (Axle u-joint gave out 1 mile from home. Broke a brand new joint trying to replace it. Looks like axle ears are bent.)

Swapping axles (slight upgrade)

Got back on the trail this weekend. It was a great day.

Had that happen to me, upgraded to RCV. Never had a problem since.

Great photos, looked like a good time. Hope you picked up all your brass, after target shooting.

Some small upgrades.

Changed the front shocks to gain a bit more uptravel, and changed out the steel winch line to a synthetic line. Saved about 30 lbs off the nose of the jeep.

Nate,
Awesome job, I have been following your build for ideas also! Benz.

Had a broken locker (why I didn't care for it, it wasn't working correctly) which Powertrax helped me out replacing the broken piece. Not to happy that they blamed the install, but they fixed it for free. Should be out on the trail Sunday.

Got out on the mountain Sunday, it was good!
