good lookin' XJ you got there! If you need help, I've probably got a local hookup for just about anything you need. FYI, both the PullAPart on Farrisview and the U-pull on Watkins have plenty of XJs to yank parts from.

picked it up from the shop today and turns out that my rear diff had very little fluid in it and the gears were grinding bad so i have to buy new gears soon , my fan belt was about to break so they replaced it and man is that thing squeaky! but they did fix my ac, it just needed a little freon and its good to go now.

and lastly they told me i need to order new tie rod ends, any suggestions? thinking about just doing the zj tie rod swap. but idk yet.

Finished wiring up my pa police siren, radar detector, cb radio, and whip today. 3 must have things for me.

And cleaned up, and bedlined two of the rusty pro comp lights that were on my roof rack and wired them to the factory fog switch. Mounting them on the bumper soon.
Pics: (jeep is super dirty on the inside right now)

Thanks, and I'm in the process of repainting it to put back on, but I really hate roof racks. So I'm not sure whether I want it on or not.

Since i need new tie rod ends, and am getting tired of my cheapo sway bar discos banging around i decided to wait on rims, and order some stuff from rustys.

Oh and here's the flex pics. Not bad for having blocks and spacers, but it looks like i got some work to do on the suspension.
And a pic of my new sticker and new tie rod and sway bar discos. Installing them this weekend hopefully.

(btw I def suggest ordering from rustys if you like stickers)

I tried this back when I lived with my parents, my dad came back asking me how much my rig is blue booked, that's all insurance will give you when your frame tweaks after get rear-ended.

Good luck with the Rustys steering... TREs are weak!

Nice looking XJ nonetheless.
