Since my truck transmission went out it is my daily driver. I am just wanting to get it straightened out for now and be able to have fun with it ( get a little mud on it!), get a feel for off road a bit. In the spring when taxes come in, i will likely do a modest lift and tinker with it more as far as mods.

This thing needs serious attention. The front drive shaft is off from the previous owner. They said it had a bad vibration. Once I get it back on I can see what i am dealing with.I went down to pick and pull, but there were no XJs, but alot of Grands. one step at a time....
Pick N Pull never has any XJ's. But someone always one MJ. Go up one more street to 24 hwy and go to U-Pick-It. They usually have like 7-10 XJ's and a bunch of grands. I live in independence and that's usually where i go. You can always go online and check inventory as well just like PickNPull

Thanks, I will go out there tomorrow to scout for parts if it isn't raining too much. I'll have to wait till payday to get anything big, but at least I'll know what they have!
