Power train works awesome. Shifts great runs great. Got some problems in the wheels and some cosmetics but other than that, she's golden. She's gonna be my trail rig any how so she can be ugly.

Here are some quick pics I snapped.



I messaged a few guys in the part out threads about a driver side window but it seems like they just mess with whole doors. If anyone can give me some info on a window that'd be awesome.



Here's my 96 with the black wheels I installed.

 

Most guys are this excited when they finally get RID of their 86XJ.

 

Looks good, but what engine is in it?

 

2.8l V6. Dubbed the worst engine GM has ever produced.

 

Probably the V6 they didn't have the 4.0 in 1986.

 

Yeah. The 96 has the 4.0. Probably put a little $$ into the 86 and sell it. I looked into maybe swapping a 4.3 but it's too wonky. Then looked into the 3.4 but it was wonky as well. Plus she has a bit of rust...

 

Yeah, I know it, thats why I asked. I was kinda hoping he would say it had a 2.5 lol

I'd swap a 4.3 in it and drive the wheels off it. That Jeep has potential, even though its got the V6. Would be a great wheeling rig.

 

Could it also have the 2.5? I have an 86 mj an thats whats in it

 

In 86 you could get the fuel injected 2.5, GM V6, or the 2.1 Renault diesel.

 

renault diesel=POS, right? must be hard to get parts for something like that

 

Nice smurf! lol

 

I'd love too man. I love a 4.3 as much as a 4.0 but I don't have the resources or funds. Originally he told me it had a 4.3 in it and I **** my pants. Then I seen the 2.8 badge on the back. Still, killer jeep considering I traded a shotgun for it.

 

lol yeah. Came with the jeep.

 

I like my 86. Check my build to see why.
