Looked at my coolant for the first time since I bought my jeep at xmas time. Coolant is in a clear cup. Darkness in the middle is sediment. Think I'll flush it...

Haha *****. That's funny. On a serious note 94XjSport94, when I installed my Brown Dogs it started vibrating as well. It come with those mm I believe. It is what it is.

I followed the directions by loosing the tranny mounts, but apparently that didn't help. My exhaust is still hitting my oil pan.

Finished swapping 1998 xj seats into my 1988. It's really quite amazing how comfortable to have a good pan and foam. The originals had no foam and the pan was snapped on the left cheek.
