I honestly don't care to get into the frame vs unibody debates. There's not a lot to debate anyway lol. Frames win! The xj unibody isn't like those freakin 2-3 piece ones on cars though. It is at least a "full framed" unibody.Originally Posted by DMG
There are two posts on here right now talking about their frames needing replaced. It happens to all of us and there's a lot of work that goes into that too as far as boxing and reinforcing.
I'm just bitching because I can't fab

1 ton XJ for sale
taking unsafe rigs to a whole other level
Giblet- she sold it for damn near nothing when she was deployed to Iraq. I'm still pissed about it.
Ridgerunner- you have no idea how close I am to saying yes. I was dd'ing it about 25 miles each way to work. If you put a steering stabilizer on it and tires that aren't made my interco I think it'd be pretty easy. BDS suspension rides really nice on the road and all the steering is relatively new. Gawd I'm going through just how much I've actually replaced on my jeep and it makes me sick

Buy a beater and daily drive the truck. Have you changed all your fluids since you ran it through the mud holes? That would be money well spent. You will learn to stay out of the deep holes with your daily driver after a few times.
