Oh, yeah that's a PITA. When my brakes are due I'm converting to read disk, I hate drum brakes.

I need advice!!!!! Found out the xj has a big electrical issue and only way to fix it is to find another xj and swap wiring. Should I keep it or start all over and junk this one??

The factory security system keeps shutting the jeep down. Fr was driving it and it shut off while she was driving. Have to disc the battery for about. 30 min before it will start again

Mines an88 and already most of my electrical has been redone, I wsnt to the junkyard and ripped it all outta junked one. I think it was worth it. We thought bout gettin rid of it but all time and money spent on it and if we did get rid of it the next car more likely need just as much fixin up or worse as our jeep. Keep it and finish fixin it up lol. One day ull own a jeep that has no problems lol . Even wen mine is needing stuff u can still drive it and is still reliable lol . Who knew?lol
