88grayXJ, nice job!

As for me, rather depressed that i have done nothing even though I need to start transferring parts from the old Xj to the newer one... But I have been building a dungeon in the basement...

I gave it a poor mans car wash. Took her to the gas station, washed every window with the scrubber and filled the tank. Im away from home (at college) with no access to a hose, and since I got her dirty wheeling last weekend I figured i would treat her nice.

I'd definitely do a compression test. I had a miss, I changed the plugs, wires, cap, router, and coil. Only to do a compression test and find out that I had a bad valve. Lovely.

took it on an offroad jamboree with a bunch of land rovers!
my mom just bought a new rover lr2 and they were having these wheelin thing to show how the stock land rovers and range rovers handle so i took the jeep to show em whats up!

the xj did everything they did with ease and most of the time was in 2wheel drive! it was fun

have to admit tho sadly that i was impresed at what those expensive rigs can do with all those features lockers limited slip hill decent control sand mode low and high 4 wheel manual mode and goin wheelin on a set of 20s with lo profiles!

id never get one even if someone tried to give me one straight up
jeeps are where its at!!

Got a flat in albuquerque and was told by discount they had no replacement for my BFG AT 33 12.50 15 but could arrange to have one waiting for me back in Denver. Got back to only find out there is a nationwide back order. They are willing to make a deal with goodyear duratracs. Anyone have experience with those?
