A few days ago I tore down a 1990 XJ NP242 and a 1999 WJ NP242 for donor parts to build a new one. Ordered bearings and seals for the input and front output, should be here next week, and then I can start building.
Last night I helped a buddy swap the fuel pump in his XJ. Today I fixed my door speaker (wire fell off). I also tried to replace the door lock actuator but it still doesn't work--the wire is damaged and only works at some angles, and the actuator is dragging so even when I have the door angle correct the actuator still doesn't move the lock. Bigger project than I expected.

Fixed my drivers seat. I sat in it the other day and the metal snapped. One of the previous owners must have been big. I just threw a washer in there and now it's level but from driving it like that for like a week and a half it feels un level.
yeah we all always blame the previous owners for stuff that we did. Lol
Defenitly looks brighter. I ordered the putco harness but haven't ordered the autopals yet. I've read so much about this upgrade and am looking forward to seeing better.

Ordered braided fuel line, AN connectors and quick disconnects to replace the fuel line. Mine was leaking where the retaining clip attaches to the intake. Supposed to be here Monday. Hope it works
