Well all I can say is your learning it and doing it right at a young age..



Now how about those front end pics of the Leaf spring set up... I've only seen one other XJ built like that and it was a hack job...

i will get pics later. i got fed up with its oil leak after doing the oil pan gasket , valve cover gasket and harmonic balancer and front seal. so i took it to a shop and they said it was timing chain cover gasket so i paid them 220 bucks and i went to pick it up and he said its done so i started it and it was still leaking. and jeez he was pissed so i think the timing chain cover might be cracked but they are checkin it out
