Started fabbin up the custom front bumper. Made the brackets that we will build everything off of. Now we just have to design the rest

 

put a stick through the side wall of one of my tires. only had about 5k on it too

 

put clear lenses on

 

did my front left wheel bearing and put one of my wheelwells back in and washed it

 

i started removing the cobwebs since the prior owner kept it in the barn. 87 model with 130k miles on it. yes!!!!

 

^^^ Wow nice find.
I replaced my rear carpeting with some interlocking foam. You know, the stuff you use in a gym or a kids room.

 

Bought the XJ an aniversary present to show her how much I care.

 

Today, I started putting my 2" coil spacer/shackle RC lift on. I got the rear shackles on and managed to break all four upper shock mount bolts. I went to put the front coil spacers in, but realized I couldn't do it without a spring compressor. I held each rear shock on with one bolt and one of them let loose on the way home from my buddy's house, so now that's flopping around and I have to fix it. And last, but not least, I stripped out the threads for the coil-spring-hold-down-tab bolt. So, tomorrow, I have to fix the stripped threads and the rear shock mounts. Then I'll be able to add my coil spacers up front. Sheesh, what a day!

 

Picked up the two piece bushing pack for the trackbar as well as two new stabilizer down links and bushings. Wanted to get them on today but Mother Nature had differant plans for North Central Penna..

 

trimmed rear fenders

 

Decided to treat it after it turned over 250k. Picked up an K&N intake (only because of CARB) and got the supplies to change all the fluid in the drive-train, Transmission, t-case, and both differentials. now I can start planning the modifications I want to do.

 

Put in new fuel injectors, now I just have to wait for Autozone to ship me my rear driveshaft U-joints! For those of you that are curious, I used these injectors: http://fuelinjectorconnection.com/sh...&productId=159
I'll try and post an update as to their performance when I get to drive her again.

 

checked my oil and water,put a bottle of Lucas fuel injector cleaner in the tank and filled her up.

 

Figured out how and where to run my radiator hoses, filled the radiator, tranny, and transfer case.

 

Installed a new Sony stereo. Sounds good.
