Default 94XJ2Door first build

I have a 94 XJ 4.0 5sp 2 door 4x4 SE model. It came with 31” tires and a lift kit. I have replaced the camshaft position sensor, idler pulley, added the RC throttle body spacer and replaced the gigantic gas gauge cluster with one that has a tach off of a 91 Laredo. Other than that it’s how it came for $300.









Oil pressure currently pegged out after autozone giving me a switch instead of a sending unit.

I’ll be on my 3’rd trip to pickup the temp sensor that’s on the back of the head.

I don't know where you guys find these deals but my hat's off to you for scoring what appears to be a super buy! Have fun with it!

Thanks! It’s very sentimental to me. My father purchased it from a friend of his that buys vehicles at auctions. The guy got ahold of my uncle so he could get the title to me. When I called him he said he bought the Jeep at an auction years ago and it’s just been sitting. Said it was full of garbage and dad was wanting something for hunting and getting to the good fishin holes…. I’ll add interior pics later. My plan is to build it up the way dad would have.

Interior pics when I got it.



It appears that mice chewed two holes in the back seat

Headliner in great condition but both sun visors are shedding cloth.

I have twins and one loves to be a helper so he gave it the first wash. I’ve since taken it through the car wash.
