Jon Snow (formerly Plan-C) The WAYALIFE XJ Build

You could always snag a 8.25 out of the junkyard for cheap and have a direct bolt in. The 29 spline 8.25 with alloy shafts is decently strong.

Yeah, I'll have to keep my eyes open. Hard to find good stuff up here for decade and a half old vehicles that isn't completely rusted out.
 
Plan C - The WAYALIFE XJ Build Thread

Lift finally in. Getting aligned now and then for a test drive to determine whether or not I'll have to do additional fender trimming. Also, may need to do a transfer case drop depending on whether or not I get driveline vibrations.
 
Very slight driveline vibrations from 20-25mph. After trimming and adding washers, I'm still getting a bit of rubbing on the driver's side front bumper end at full lock when turning right.

Ordered a T-case drop kit and will do a bit more fender trimming once I fix my Dremel.

All in all, I'm very happy with the results!

Funny how every time this thread gets bumped it not actually pictures of Plan C - The WAYALIFE XJ. Maybe a good time to start your own thread. The XJ looks great and we would love for you to share more details.

:cheesy: Thanks to Moby being out with a temp sensor issue and Rubicat out with a bad leak at the steering box, we've been driving Plan-C all week. Of course, after going to the store yesterday, I saw something on the ground that made me look up and see this...

eh, it's really my fault for not staying on top of maintenance the way I should have been. I've just been so busy these past 3 months but, now that we're done with the JKX videos, I can spend more time giving our Jeeps a little TLC :yup:
