"White Lightning"
 

This will be the build thread for my 1993 two door XJ sport limited edition when I bought it, it had some issues but was taken really good care of by the little old lady who drove it...
Some issues include power steering leak, hard shifting and steering and extremely loud engine noise when at higher rpms

Stock a few days before i bought it

So.... What are your plans for it?

After a bath

First main mod

How much did you pay for it? It looks pretty decent

Guy wanted 1200 then asked for a 1000 when i came back for it 3 months later i told i would give him 800 and he took it it has 221k miles on it

Not bad, does it have the up country pakage and is it a 5-speed or auto?

well it is not four wheel drive but its an auto and i have not really investigated yet i dont know what exactly makes it a limited edition it looks like a normal sport model two door with a little emblem around the keyhole that says limited edition plans are to eventually convert to 4wd down the road but right now just make it a capable daily driver able to handle light off roading for the time being

Well that works, i thought the limited edition came with leather or vinyl seats and upgraded interior trim/exterior paint

I dont know man i even researched it and cannot find anything other than the "limited" model

Thats weird, id do alittle more digging and im sure youd find something about it

Spent about four hours trying to get my new steering stabilizer on and to no avail the old son of a gun wont come off so i guess i will have to wait

Steering
 

Ok so i cut the old stabilizer off and took the tie rod off and painted it and the connecting thing and put the new stabilizer on and then got everything back together and i know its filthy tie rod is white cause it matches my color scheme so dont hate

Looking good! I did the same thing. LOL. Keep up the good work.

Whoops Not done
 

Ok so i thought i was done with everything but no... on the inner tie rod for the driver side wheel the end would not accept the nut and the threaded stud was spinning in the end i thought no good but i was late for work thought o it will be ok loose then was on my way not a good idea severe bucking of the steering wheel and real bad vibration so after work spent some money and bought an end and a pickle fork (tie rod end separator) and some other little stuff and replaced it advanced is only like 5 minutes from the house... replaced it and went home still bad vibration only worse well i pull over and start checking it out come to find out several lug nuts are loose and causing the vibration apparently the kids were playing with the lug wrench while i worked on the steering :oops: but tightened it all up got home and did an alignment and took her out again and smoother than a babys butt til you get to 65 anybody got an idea what could cause it?
