Thanks HB!

Can the heads be swapped for later years?

XJ's I'm going to go look at:
http://albuquerque.craigslist.org/cto/3574130130.html $4600 sounds high. Does anyone know this person? I'm not crazy about the fake wood interior trim.

Also looking at this one: http://albuquerque.craigslist.org/cto/3551257306.html It was in a "minor front collision" with clear title.

I just want to make sure it's good before I stuff it under the jeep. I don't want any problems for a little while.

I need to learn my jeep lingo.

Question on the lower pinion axles on the 00-01's. I'm going to be using the jeep as a DD and camping rig. Maybe some offroading nothing crazy. How does the lower pinion effect that?

Not a lot of people mind it and just leave it alone. It just the low pinion are more prone to vibrate when lifted and can possible hit if offroading in some rocky areas. And I think the gears are standard cut not reverse. Or something like that I can't remember. Its mostly personal preference.
