Thanks! Yeah I know. The previous owner must have had a generator back there that burned the **** outta the headliner. A lot of work that I dont know how to do, and dont want to mess up if I take it off

Thanks! Yeah real inexpensive and easy. No drilling nothing. I just put the second pole on the other side. hah

 

went to the JY and picked up a gas tank skid plate from a 96 ZJ ORVIS EDITION. In pretty good condition. Also picked up some new door drim items. Sorry no pics. Hands really dirty didnt want to take any pics.

$10 BUCKS for this skid plate

Should this skid plate fit my 99 XJ???????

 

Yup mine did and it came from a 97 ZJ

Just gotta add a few holes in the right spots.

 

Ok great. I hope to put it on today

 

Does it matter if I have a 20 gallon tank?

 

I don't think it should because ZJs had around 20+ gallon tanks.

 

Great. I hope to try it today

 

There's a write up in the XJ write up section if you get stuck

 

Thanks. But got a new problem. My driver side door won't lock! The stupid previous owner messed up the inside of the door by pulling it off without unscrewing it. Complete idiot. I went to the junk yard and got a new panel and that didn't work. Now I have no idea what to do!

 

So today I finally fixed my stupid door. Sorry no pics of the fixing. Was by myself getting frustrated. I couldn't figure out why it wasn't working. It would lock when I had the door panel off but everytime I put the door panel back on it would not lock. So then I used my parts from the junk yard in the pictures below. Check out how bent the rod was from the stupid PO > He must have bent all the rods when tried to remove the panel to put in new speakers.

Also check out my new gas tank skid. Will be going on today! Still can't believe it was only $10 )

 

Ellen Degeneres is straighter than that rod!

 

Haha so true!

 

Hey CFARR44 that a nice looking XJ

 

Thanks! I think yours looks pretty nice too

 

Got any pictures of that gas tank skid installed?
