Nope, I will be locked in the front and have long arms before I even think about going to bigger tires and I doubt if I'll put that kind of money into my XJ. With summer coming I'm really wanting to get back into a softtop.

What kind of specs do you want Jon??
The main bumper is 2"x4" .250 wall and the swingout is 2"x2" .187 wall (3/16"). Weighs about 70lbs as a whole unit. The hinge and latch come from EMS Off Road (I just looked at their site and they don't have the hinge listed anymore??? I'm guessing maybe they are out right now)

All of this practice is in preparation for the crawler chassis I will make someday.

i always wanted to do the same thing.  i have a sami i've been waaiting to hack apart for about 3 years now, all these projects and no place to do em, nor any time.  i really am thinking i'm going to have to bb the zj so i can do some wheeling...but back to topic, when your ready to build the chassis let me know i might be of some fab use.
