Post 2000 XJ Reporting for Duty

Hi all,

Reporting for duty in California - SF/East Bay. I have been handed down a fine 2000 XJ 2WD I6 4.0L. Thanks to these forums I have been able to diagnose and fix many problems! This is my first car and all of these are my first repairs on a vehicle i've ever done I've also just received my build sheet from Chrysler. See end of post.

Here is a list of the things I have managed to fix/do by scouring the internet and forums here. In the order that I can remember I fixed them in.

Fixes
Radiator flush
Turn signal relay flasher
Passenger side power window
New radio head
Re-wired both front speakers
New speakers
Driver side door check pin
Diagnosed P0203/P0303
I ran the codes and confirmed cylinder 3 misfire/open injector circuit. Before replacing the injector/o-rings I sprayed degreaser inside the engine compartment since it was pretty dirty. Sprayed it all off with some hot water while the engine was running. No more rough idle. No issues after running some errands on the way to AutoZone. CEL even turned off after a few engine starts.
Front struts


Here's what I have left to do. Categorized by importance

8.25 nice. Sounds like the makings of a fun little pre-runner. Welcome to the fora.

Whats the significance of the 8.25 axle?

Also, is it even worth off-roading/outfitting this jeep since its 2WD? I read the 2WD/4WD is "easy" if you find the similar year cherokee.

Just searched - there are a lot of threads going over this already.
