Everybody is a SME on something. Building XJ's falls into my wheelhouse with 15 years of experience.
So you've seen this damage to XJs from plowing snow?

Or have you seen damage from the stresses of off-roading and rock crawling?

Having plowed snow for over 20 years I can tell you that if you're damaging the truck like that you're doing it wrong

Residential plowing isn't that tough on the rig if you know what you're doing
