Are you planning on making a write up for the vents? That would be wicked.

I was going to but mud did a decent job in the tech section on hood vents. and for the most part they are all the same techniques.

How do you like the Rough Country system?
Was the ARB hard to install?

This is the second XJ i have had the RC system on. For the money it was well worth it. It can be a bumpy ride but new shocks and a couple other things could fix that right up. I put about 10K on this lift and about 30K on my old one. On my old one it took a lot of abuse!
As far as the ARB it was actually fairly easy to install. Just have an extra person or two to hold it up (its not to heavy) while the third person aligns the bolts and tightens them down.

Sweet, I will have to look into the RC and ARB.
Have you hit anything with the ARB?

I have scraped a few rocks. Nothing to hard. But the reason why I bought it other than the fact that I found it used and always wanted one, is that the ARB is made to take on kangaroos in the outback. They are made to take the impact, probably fold, but most importantly save the jeep. So living in Wisconsin, I wanted it for my DD because of all the deer around here especially night driving during hunting season. I love it.

I had a short stubby on the ARB for a bit. I took it off and when i get back from vacation i am going to be mounting it like you have on your rooster. I just need to figure out how to make one of those brackets.

How do you like the general grabbers? I have heard they are comparable to the popular BFG A/T KOs. (Which I have and like alot.)

i'm getting jealous of your 96, my 96 needs to be more like yours!
before I took a second look at your thread I was looking at RC lifts, but I'm not sure if I want to go with RC 4.5 or Rustys 4.5
