Ah ok you got to push in the two hooks on the left in order to release the connector, what you opened is the top of the connector that is to remove the pins.
so i would like to know what that combo looks like with 33" tires, i seen 1 guys xj set up like that and it seemed like he didn't net 5", however another guys xj set up the same seemed like it set up pretty high. pics and info would be great

I didn't because I only have the crappy stock bottle jack right now. I'm finishing my move this weekend so I had to do what I could.

I'm sitting in the airport now, and my return trip will include my tools... And regular old floor jack. I appreciate the advice, but I wanted to share my experience since nobody mentioned this as a possibility.

I have an 88 xj with a closed cooling system it leaks out of the brand new bottle at about 150 degrees. Also my heater hoses are burning hot is that normal? I have replaced pretty much everything to do with the cooling system besides new heater hoses. Any suggestions on what could be the problem?

are the radiator hose getting hot,it sounds like you need to burp the sytem better,I think I said that before,it has a bubble next to the t-stat so its not flowing properly
