Picked up another xj last night for $450 96 forest service rig. Ran like **** on 4 or 5 cylinders. Replaced the spark plugs, wires, cap & roter, serpentine belt, and the oil pressure sender and it runs like a champ.
Now I just need a new muffler and front bumper and it'll be road/trail ready.

All Metal Radiator
I don't have any tips on rigging up that 1 row/plastic tank/nipple always rots off POS. I'm eventually going to get a 3 row all metal radiator from radiatorbarn.com (gotto rebuild my engine first
)

I just looked it over again, I can either drill it out and thread a new nipple in or cut off the barbs coming off whats left of it and attach it there. I'm leaning more towards cutting it for now.
