Looks like it's time to start a new build thread!!! Not much building going on though, probably stay pretty much as is for the winter at least. Had it for a while now but just managed to get some pics uploaded today:

Specs:
1990 XJ Pioneer
Disco-D30/C-clip D35
Renix 4.0
AW4
NP231
Front OE type HD coils
Rear full length add-a-leaf

Well maintianed, solid old XJ, works great. Only off-road related mod so far has been the addition of a Class III rear hitch. I'll add a front tow point sometime soon. No definite plans yet but It's not likely to see major modification, likely stay DD/mild off-roader.

'90 XJ Pioneer, 4.0, AW4, NP231, D30/D35, 30x9.50 BFG M/T's, straight body panels, and shiny paint. Weird I know, but it's gonna be nice not being the ugliest Jeep in the club anymore.

Nice and solid for sure, but maybe not quite as good as it looks. I've picked up a few pointers over the years on how to shoot a vehicle to make it look it's best. Also it's had a re-paint sometime in the past, few spots will need attention before much longer. Original floor is completely untouched and free of holes though, I'm sure that says something to anyone who know's their XJ's. Oh and it turned over 192K today so she's got a few more miles in her yet. I've put 1500km on it so far now without any unexpected issues.
