make sure you grab the nut plate from inside the frame. You will have to remove the rear bumper to get it. Also might be nice to grab the rear exhaust hanger if it's not rusted. I didn't and now my exhaust hands ghetto-ly.

I can now confirm that later model ZJ leather seats will not fit in any shape or form into a 1990 XJ without some real modifications. I'll be selling my now 'extra' leathers on CL in Reno.
