I'm sorry, but I'm gonna put your XJ on blocks and take your wheels if I ever see it sitting alone. Now where's the :jealous: icon?

Go into the engine compartment right behind where the dash is as just check the ground. It's a chance the feed from the headlight switch is bad. Could be other things but these are 2 that pass through my mind

Went out this morning to go to work, and noticed a random relay sitting on the passenger floor mat.. matches the others in the fusebox, but can't find an open space for one, and everything seems to work.. oh well lol.

Fixed my exhaust leak/broken/rotten hangers by cutting off the tailpipe in front of the rear axle.. did not expect that much deeper of an exhaust drone from it.. may need to exit out the side now haha.

Also trimmed the front fenders a little more behind the wheels, they keep getting bent up from the tires hitting and looked bad (no pics, I forgot).

I thought I was pretty strong until I tried to remove the rear hitch from the bumper (in preparation for sanding and painting the rear bumper). Now it's soaking in WD40.

When I pulled my hitch off at the junkyard, it took me and a buddy a good 45 minutes of straining to undo those bolts. Its definitely not a fun time.

I hope you ran a new harness to feed them, the stock harness is not up to the job.
