Offroadnut, the negative battery cable on your 1990 XJ is grouded to a stud at the rear of the engine block on the passenger side. Just start at the battery and follow the cable down. Put your finger right between the number 5 and 6 sparkplug holes and go straight down. It's most likely covered in goop, oil and dirt but, it's there.
