One, before I took it apart, fully functional overhead console put back together. Will dry run it again to make sure it still functions before I install it.
cleaned up and painted the front sway bar I got from a member on here to replace my bent one that's causing the end link to touch the coil spring which I'm hoping is causing the constant shake around 60mph.
Got one side of my rear sway bar ripped off. Busy day. Work, the wife and I painting the in-laws kitchen cabinets, my table-top gaming night I host every Wednesday. Started wrenching at 10:15PM after everyone left. Lol. Just got the urge.

I'm going to do the same on my 96 Country. I already have the HL/OHC and SB out ready to be recovered. I have the material and will do it myself but I need to take care of a couple of rust spots back near the liftgate along the drip rail before I do that.

Wish I thought I would have done a good job doing it myself but........ Is the overhead your using also out of a '96 X?

Yes, it is the original to the vehicle headliner. I removed the old covering and glue. It was easy. The hard part was removing the dried glue from the console and sound bar plastic shells. I have all the liner materials to do the covering myself and will begin when I fix the rust near the liftgate.
My XJ looked much like that recently. I removed all the interior, seats, carpet, interior plastic panels. The only parts I left in were the instrument and door panels. I have since replaced the carpet after pressure washing them. I also replaced with OEM new plastic panels in the cargo area. A few things I'm looking at doing is installing a factory cargo cover and the mounting brackets. My XJ did not have it but I do have a complete set up to install it. I also have a bumper mounted OEM spare tire carrier with all the mounting hardware I am considering installing. I'll make a decision on those things after I get the rust repaired and the headliner back in. My XJ is a bone stock 96 Country. Only mod is tires, 235's instead of stock 225's.
She sure does clean up nice. Finally got around to cleaning the exterior/interior after a couple trips out to CO and UT this Summer. Almost felt sacrilegious washing off all that dirt.
