update on my xj

nudosimmons · 01-17-2007, 10:04 AM

This will be my build thread and i will continue to update it

well this is my xj when i got it dec 17

since ive gotten it i have
replace the clutch master cyl
replaced the side rear glass(both sides) one was broke i found factory tinted so i changed both
new fender, grille, header panel
interior is stripped waiting for herculiner as soon as i find some leaks
i replaced the oil pressure sending unit and that fixed my oil gauge
also changed the oil and filter, air filter, plugs, wires, cap and button(have the fuel filter but its no on yet)
trimmed the fenders
repaired interior rust holes
added trim to the fenders
i rattled canned it flat black

my plans- working on a bumper- have the metal and the mounts are basically done
probably some sliders
3 in lift and 33s soon
later ill swap for an 8.8 rear and a ax15 tranny

Sheesh, stock height and it looks like it wants 31s under there.

Looks good.

Looks great. Keeps me excited about working on my 87 5spd. Only its getting the AX15 first so it can actually be drivable.

jeep has been in my shop for 3 weeks and i havnt had time to work on it. finally tonight i put the first coat of herculiner down. hopefully in the morning ill get the second coat down and get some pics up

ive got a blow by to install, has anyone installed this with out using the breather. it looks like if you use the breather then there is no need to connect it to the airbox
