j cut on xj

[guy]

just wondering if anyone has ever done a j cut on the rear quaterpanels. just really wanting some ideas on closing up the wheel well and relocating the gas cap.

Are you referring to a comp cut? If you are most do it to stretch the wheel base and you then have to relocate the gas tank so the filler door isn't an issue. You also have to build wheel tubs. Tons of write up son sites like Pirate4x4.

its the same thing as a compcut. I just have always heard it called a j cut cause it looks like a j.

Are you talking about a cut like this or like mine with just the lower part removed?
