I had 5 points at Autozone ($20 bucks) so I bought me a K&N filter and installed it.

 

I also got these 2 new stickers in...

 

I pulled the motor again ( I hope it's the last time) lol put the transmission on and I'm getting ready to drop it all back in tomorrow I will post pics tomorrow

 

doing a bunch of stuff on the XJ today...leading up to my fender flares install. All in my build thread.

 

Continued my flares install...in my build thread.

 

discovered a new hesitation and power loss problem, think ima be dropping the tank tomorrow...

 

lol...all you guys do serious work, pulling engines, transmissions, changing bearings at autoparts store and **** ...all my bull**** seems weak in comparison!

 

Lol ..... I'm starting to get over my build I take one step forward then two or three steps back it sucks that's what happens tho when your putting stuff together that isn't supposed to be. I got home from work yesterday and went to but the transmission to the engine and the shaft on the transmission wouldn't go into the clutch teeth so I pulled it all out and I have about a 16th if not less that won't go in I don't think I should grind it down a little. :;head bash:;

 

Hmm the 20th i threw the transfer back in after finishing up the sye kit!
Riding like a stock one!

 

Traded the puego transmission and transfercase for an ax15 and transfer case now my project is back in the works should have it set back in by the weekend(hopefully) then need to run up to summit to see about a radiator for the beast

Cut, ground and drilled for new shock bolts and new shocks... Replace front to rear brake lines, wheel cyl, shoes and drums. pulled the dents out of the rear bumper sanded it and coated it with bedliner... More tomorrow!!!!

 

I ordered the rest of the parts for the conversion for my jeep they should be here in the next couple of days then I will have everything needed to bolt it back into the jeep I will take some picks when I get off work today then I will be ordering my lift kit today hopefully if everything goes right lol

 

nice! your gonna love it. mine came with an ax15 installed when I bought it. One of my favorite manual gearboxes, as far reliability and sturdiness.

 

New fuel filter, O2 sensor, and wiper blades. Also found out why it sounds like my rear bumper is about to fall off. The new shackles I put on a few weeks ago are hitting the bumper bolts. Looks like I have more work to do.
