Just joined yesterday. Been lurking due to where I'm located, (just across the Pa/De. border I-95). Don't post much on forums due to being computer dumb.I wheel an 00 XJ. Currently under the knife upgrading the steering to a hydro assist. Hope see some of you out on the trails

Yes we do. In the process of installing hydro-assist and a different steering set-up(cav-fab).
Just a FYI just order our tickets for the appreciation dinner.

ok cool, I had an 01 XJ for a while, had the Currie steering links and a radius long-arm setup, tons of flex (no swaybar helped with that). Only had 35" tires so just no steering boosts. Have you braced the frame rails or steering box? I know that won't really be a concern with the ram, just curious. My bumper went back to the steering box bolts and I added a crossbrace that helped steering response a lot.

Unibody has been braced on both sides in the front. Box is supported and a frame brace runs from one side to the other. Only reason it was braced is i pulled the box off the body. I can show pictures at the event.
Jeep definitely didn't expect us to run a lift kit or big tires with the XJ
