Search is your friend. I also was stuck with an auto. Man I am so glad now. For off road you couldn't pay me to put a standard in it.

if you have no mechanical ability sell your xj and buy a 5-speed one it takes work and lots of parts/ donor vehicle...and search several people on this forum have done the swap
