Ahhhhh! See I would've called that a "my **** totally rusted off so I'm going to pretend it's still drivable even though I just destroyed the structure" cut. But I guess that's just semantics.
Unless there's serious fab and it's to fit a stretched wheel base of course.

Working on my 2000 XJ 4.0. Lined up the timing marks when I pulled the timing chain. Put the new chain/gears on. Lined every thing back up the same way. Rotated the engine, rechecked the marks, and everything looks good.
My problem, the Haynes manual says to rotate the crank clockwise until the cam timing mark is at the 1 O'clock mark, the crank mark should be at the 3 O'clock , then count the number of pins, it should be 15. Mine is 20. I believe I have it correct, but just want to verify with someone that has worked on these before. Thanks.......RR

I have a 1999 jeep cherokee sport with an inline 6 , I replaced the exhaust manifold with a stainless steel exhaust manifold, had to take off the intake move the power steering pump, and the first time I tried to start it the injectors leaked and then we tightened them up and it's like they are spraying too much fuel, because when I start it up it revs to 5000 rpms and I have to shut it off before it blows up, the throttle isn't stuck and we reset the ecu and no luck, do you have any ideas on what it is?
Here is a whole thread on the header fitment issue.
