Looked under the jeep, saw motor oil on the drive way, its coming from the back of the oil pan. Either a bad plug seal or the rear main again. This suck just did the rear main 4000 miles ago.... Not a good day, doing the rear main blew *********.

Just tore my Dash apart to spray WD-40 in the Speedo cable. My mechanic said that could be the cause of the squeak im getting (Made sense since it only happens under hard acceleration/braking, and my speedos been acting up anyways).
To my disappointment........... It's and Electric speedo
So i still need to get into AAMCO to get it diagnosed.

BTW... Just pretend you don't see the other lights with a ton of condensation and mud in them
Now I'm just waiting for the headlight switch I ordered so I can drive it again

Didn't work on any of my XJ's today but helped my roommate do some stuff on his. He bought this thing off a member here who pretty much lied through his teeth and ripped him off. Needless to say he doesn't show his face much anymore. As with everything that had been done to this XJ it was half assed the fender cutouts were no exception and hack jobs past the pinch welds and since we're in the middle of doing his floor pans (which are rusted fairly bad) and waiting for them we decided to do the cut and fold and seal up the gaping holes in the fenders. Got creative for some of the curved sections and we used one of my old fenders off the '99 to piece some metal in. Silicon and riveted or tek screwed everything together. Hopefully it's all water tight when we're done.
Under the trim for the bushwackers that sits under the door (front of rear fenders) we found those pinch welds had been cut also and instead of trying to from some flat sheetmetal to those comeplex cuves I just cut the entire piece from the dark blue '00 parts XJ I have and it fit GREAT!
Forgot to take a picture of the piece in place but will do it tomorrow. It turned out awesome though.
