Lookin for parts
Haven't done much to my XJ lately. I think i gots a lemon engine lol. Bought my 87 Cherokee 4dr a few months ago, drove it for awhile. Kept good maintenance on it, changed the oil, did a gear oil change on the BA10 and fluid change on the tcase. And then she ended up throwin a rod. Now I'm lookin for another 87-90 Jeep Renix 4.0 I6 to drop into it. Already got the old engine out, and now she just sits around. Depressing to say the least.

Hauled a 6x12 utility/snowmobile trailer with my lawnmower on it to Campobello... hauled it back with my grandfather's broken lawnmower.
Tomorrow I drop $650 on a new steering box, pitman arm, and brake adjusters. Wish me luck.

Found a way to put a tripod in the Jeep for a camera (in my case, flip mino) pretty sturdy too! Gonna let the flip charge then get a couple videos of my new glasspack.

I bought my jeep with only the left side of the exterior lights working. Driving around a big city like that is asking for a fine.
I figured out what the problems were on monday, fixed all but one on tuesday, and picked up the elusive tail light socket I needed to finish it up.
I had lost all hope on that last one (without having to go to the junk yard anyway) Until I read on here that it is the same as an old ford and oreilly's had them for 5.99. Thanks to that I got to drive my baby to work this morning! Wahoo!

Took her out 4 wheeling in the weekend, and tested my dash cam out
