Re: 87 YJ magically turned into a '92 XJ
Ok...some photos are up, my '93 Wrangler which will be receiving a
shackle lift in a few days when the rear shackles come in and the new
'92 Cherokee toy. There are more pictures coming whenever photobucket
stops being stupid and lets me upload them.

Re: 87 YJ magically turned into a '92 XJ
Ok...some photos are up, my '93 Wrangler which will be receiving a
shackle lift in a few days when the rear shackles come in and the new
'92 Cherokee toy. There are more pictures coming whenever photobucket
stops being stupid and lets me upload them.
