RE: One sick jeep
I picked up a welder and have tried my hand at customizing my XJ to correct some steering and caster issues. I thought I'd post some pics to show off my new found talent!:

RE: Anybody know the payload of this vehicle?
I don't see what the problem is? When I out the lift blocks in the front of my YJ, I had to weld the pitman arm too, but I used 1/8 inch thick 1.25x1.25 angle Iron.

oh man. That's soooo scary looking. It doesn't even look like it's lifted that much either...only like 3" or so judging by the stockish looking tires
