I finished up and drove my white XJ home today. Runs good, sounds goods, but does anyone know how to adjust camber/caster on XJ's? My front tires are leaning a bit.

Step 1: Remove front axle.
Step 2: Put it back.
[Repeat as necessary]

Sounds to me like T/C chain may be getting a little slop in it...
Doesn't hurt to change the fluid either. Takes just shy of 2 qts of ATF4

A properly rebuilt engine is a new engine. I've seen 4.0s with 300k+ on them.

703s are picked clean by a vendor in the baltimore area...

I dont have the timeframe to pull off a hitch... most of my time is gonna be axleshafts and a master cylinder upgrade... maybe if pulltab is up for it.

As far as the alignment... by changing anything dealing with your suspension, you are changing multiple different areas of measure...

Moral of the story, google it. Then when you try and need help with something other than a vague statement of "my tires lean", then come to us.

Phew

All depends on what was done. Rebuild kits go for around +/- $400
To do it right, block should be hot dipped, machined along with head, and all new parts installed. Would run you upwards of $1000+
