Moses i was going to put TJ flares on mine(As you know i can get them cheap!
) BUT its alot of work to get them on alot of cuting into stuff then welding plates here and there just trim the original shape out then go bunnings flares!
I know what your like and a zook is a basic car compaired to the XJ you'll love it!
Drive it stock for a while to get a feel as there way different to anything else then mod it!

bunnings flares ??? are you for real...........
you know me better than that mate...........just like the XJ, plastic checkerplate flares all round
but if TJ flares are too much work i will just make something cutom up, just want to cut as much steel away as i can to get the room i want

another thing............
many of you have mentioned moving the front diff forward, which is something i will look into doing asap
but just want know if anyone has moved the rear diff backwards, was just thinking if i do both just to get a little more longer wheel base
but if i was to do this would there be any problems i would run into ??

problems u will run into moving rear back if not accounted for will be fuel tank clearance as rear diff is close as is under there. also rear shock placement would bend shocks if not moved.
a couple inches i think would be possible whilst moving the shocks around a bit. I have made some adapter plates to fit in CJ rear springs with about a 1-2" backward move but have not put them in as of yet.
