Picked up a set of seats for free and put the back in.... They're from a '96 and fit like a glove in my '88.

Hit the jy and got everything on my list in one hour. It was hot but I was happy. Put new mirror and assembly on the wife's wj as well as replaced drivers side master switch. Everything works now. Gotta love the jy. It only cost 34 bucks. Good day.

Got my camera Pics from the club show n shine, great turnout, bbq'd over 240 burgers and 150 dogs, sponsoring "childrens wish charity" great day.The Peep's another 5" up the ramp, next year swaybar disconnects. Davy said no car crush for him this year, but you can't hold an XJ back. Lots of great XJ's and great ideas.
Caged has the new front clip on and it looks fantastic.
Dealership and Chrysler rep were much appreciated. Great community!

You can... It is a decent degreaser. But it is hard on rubber and plastics. Most good degreasers are. But I honestly would recommend using a good name brand heavy duty degreaser according to the directions on the label rather than paint thinner.
