Today I added my "cold air" deleted my pcv crap and air box added 6 new injectors at a wapping 35 dollars from Ebay and they work beautifully figured out my up and down idle was caused by my dizzy that had play left and right in the shaft so the timing was varying all over the place
Year: 1998 Classic (I'll get it running soon....) and 02 Grand
Model: Cherokee (XJ)
Engine: 4.0
Bought it, put it on the trailer, drove it home, unloaded and parked it. Looked it over more. Took some pics. Looked up the VIN online. Removed the alternator from my wrecked 97 to put in it. Tossed it because it turned out to be locked up tighter than a drum. (Sitting exposed for a year, I suppose.) Ordered new alternator from NAPA to pick up Monday. Started researching tires.
Replaced the power steering pump on my ZJ. Was pretty easy. That was the last major leak that I had. Got to try out both my new Milwaukee M12 ratchet and my Ridgid JobMax ratchet. Both work great but the M12 is smaller and easier to get into tight spaces. I highly recommend one or the other (or both!).
Had the XJ out brother came bye and thought would go for a short relaxing drive just some back roads and one seasonal road and back home well the seasonal road was not meant to be part of a relaxing ride I guess the clay type water hole looked maybe 8 /10 inches deep thought why turn around when about 3/4 the way threw so a little water mud never scared either of us. It will wash. well as you can see about 30 yards in the 8/10 deep hole sucked my 35's in and there I sat. on a positive note the winch works great!
Bought a new grille to paint a section out of ebay (did not want to mess my original painted grille) and installed. Replaced spark plugs as well. Ordered some 4 holes injectors but are lost in transit, not able to install yet.
Offering a free OEM front bumper in decent condition with the plastic end caps and mounting brackets. Local pick up or send me a pre paid ups label and will send it your way. Also front marking lights and flashers OEM in good condition and tail lights in fair condition. Left tail light with a small crack thought.

So awhile back I picked up door and sound bar speakers that would be in a Jeep with the Infinity Sound System.
The back are dual cones type ones and were in OK shape as is. Threw those in when I got them.
The fronts on the other hand need to be refoamed. Before you tell me that it is not worth it be aware I know.
But kind of trying to keep the Jeep Jeep and I figured this could be a learning experience.
So I managed to get one speaker cleaned up to do so. Top one in the picture needs to be done still.
The other shot is the kit to refoam the speakers.
Figure this has waste of time written all over it, I mean me actually doing this right, but what the hell. LOL
Very eventful weekend. First, the motor in the 93 XJ blew up. So while searching Craigslist for a used engine, I found the picture of a red XJ for sale. I drove down to look at it and it was a two door, four by four. Picked it up for 600 bucks. So now I will be taking Parts off of the 93, like the tire carrier, new headlights, new battery alternator and starter. I will be putting them on the 96. I also bought my wife a 2010 Jeep Commander four by four for $7,000.

My dad got a Commander a couple weeks ago. He really likes it so far. Looks a lot better now that its got a small lift and some aggressive tires.
That looks nice. I got my wife a white one with gray leather interior. It's not going to be used Offroad at all. The only reason I wanted 4 wheel drive was for the snowing and icy roads up north in either West Virginia or Indiana when we go visit family. I just wanted a comfortable and nice vehicle to drive
