Flame red? Mine is bright red and a 96 2 door.

 

yeah flame red is the name for the bright red

 

I've only seen one 97+ overhead console in the JY. I'm sure they're not as rare as I'm thinking though, but still. between 4 or 5 junkyards and probably 40 xj's, one. Ooooh 97+ tow hooks too. haven't seen a single set in the jy yet

 

They are pretty rare. I have one. And in the last two years in about 30 junk yard trips, I've found 3.

 

oh, wow, lol. Just checked my build sheet and you're right.

 

how many miles on yours?

 

and where did you get your build sheet?

 

170k something. I replaced the gauge cluster and forgot to write down the mileage when I did it. I know it was just at 170k when I swapped the cluster out, and I don't drive much. Oh well, I know it's wrong and will tell the buyer the truth. Haha.

^go there, tell them your vin, and ask for your build sheet.

 

That's some pretty cool info right there. Thanks for the link.

Diesel engine? I want one. And to think I was thinking of putting a Toyota diesel in a MJ

 

No you dont, if I remember correctly it was Garbage.

 

The one that North America got was garbage (2.1L Renault J8S Diesel, only offered 85-87) but I've heard that the 2.5L VM Motori 425OHV Diesel offered in 94+ export models was decent.

 

That's the same company that's building the V6 diesel in the 1500 series ram this year.
