Ive always liked those rims on XJ. Coming along nicely.

Progress is about to slow down, the SYE is going on next Friday as long as I have my driveshaft by then, and after that I am going to start looking for a rear D44 from an XJ to start building.

I did one last thing before bedtime tonight, I installed this super cheap Bomz open element filter I bought off of Ebay for like 23 bucks shipped.

Put the LCA's on today, along with the drop mounts for the front sway bar. Also, put some performance friction front brake pads, and 3/4" spacers in the front springs. I will take some more pics in the morning, its been storming all afternoon and the tornado sirens have been going off. Also, a little advice on the aluminum spacers/adapters off of ebay, stay away, we took my front wheels off today and the lug nuts were seized on 2 of the studs and we had to just break them off with the impact. I guess I am going to have to order some spidertrax adapters to replace them, or look into replacing the studs. I dont know if that is recommended on aluminum spacers or not.

Here is a pic from today, it raised the front a little more with the 3/4" spacer. I also swapped my injectors this morning, I put brand new Ford CM-4956 injectors in. It definately runs and accelerates smoother now. I can't decide what to do next, it's either going to be a steel cowl induction hood or an Aussie locker for the 8.25.
