50% off jy sale....what to buy?
So the local yard is having its 50% OFF SALE. So i went down and did a little pre shopping.
I have a long list of to do's on my POS...so here goes, and what im thinking.
Found a clean 96 in there..low miles.want to pull the dual diaphram booster and MC for a brake upgrade.
Injector harness...for the injector up grade...goining in a 88 renix
That stuff for sure^^^
Now, was thinking of pulling the hp30 non disco..complete...to replace my disco 30..I think the 96 had better u joints 796?...plus the non cast section..which im afraid will blow aprt with the long arms.???
Unfortunatly i could not find a good 8.25 to replace my turdy 35...looked for a 8.8..no go there either... if im gonna spend the money would rather find a LSD 8.8 with factory 4.10s...could only find 1 lsd with 3.73.
Anting else i should look for?
At 50% off..i can get axles for $90bucks , complete, and im lazy so the yard dog will pull them for 40$ a piece.
What else...sugestions???

You could do new door panels and such if yours arnt so hot anymore. You could grab some spare u-joints. If they have a govt issue xj you can grab some skid plates off it.

Are there any LKQ yards near you? They usually have awesome selections and all holidays are 50% off... I get complete axles for 50 bucks. No matter what it is.

there is roughly a dozen or so xj's there, no z,wj"s though..mostly pretty well parted out. the rest of the body on mine is ok...did find some "U graded" displays..or "gauge clusters there.

I could.but, im not sold on the huge cast in section on the front axle..afraid its gonna bust with a long arm kit??
Also thinking, if i have a complete spare axle..laying around.. icould truss it, beef it up..and proto type my cross over heim steering on it...all while keeping the POS mobile? That way i only have to deal with the axle once.?
