I hit the u pull it today.. Finally found some decent seats for a 2 door xj, they fold forward, so the kid can get in easier now.. Shes stoked.. So got them in. The po had 4 door seats in< wtf? Tried to put in the front recovery hooks i scored there too. But on my 85 i have to drop the bumper to get them on. Ran out of daylight. Bummer. I also had a great idea, I didnt have a big torx bit so i couldn't take the doors with me. But next week im grabbing new doors off the 2 door i found. Gonna paint them up, and hopefully have windows for the winter. I love my rag top, but burrr...

Replaced the broken left rear quarter panel glass in the 89 yesterday. Went to Pull A Part today and picked up a replacement fuel line for the the 91, hatch struts for the 89, and a factory tcase skid plate. Not sure which XJ will get the skid plate yet.

the seats in my 4 door don't lean forward or back, they are just stuck sticking pretty much straight up. It kind of annoyed me when I first got it but now I have kind of gotten use to it.

I am actually mid-seafoam on the Heep. Also cleaned and put di-electric grease on all my Fuel Injector electrical connectors as its throwing multiple CEL codes. my TPS is good so I know thats not the problem

Had a great day at the u-pull. Scored a rear hatch interior panel, spare tire and jack, overhead sound bar, and cruise control. I just love the cruise on these older ones, literally took 5 minutes to install and it works perfectly!
