Alright so its been awhile since I've updated this thing.. in that time I bought an '88 MJ.. which I thought i wanted.. and I did it just had too many problems and I didn't have enough time to fix all of them. So I sold it and bought a '99 XJ from a dealership and loved it but missed my old 5 speed and my old XJ in general so instead of selling the old XJ to pay off the new one I've decide to continue with my plans on this jeep and use the '99 as a DD and possibly giving it to my wife and she can sell her Kia so i'll finally be able to start my jeep family!
