Hi,
Just got it, has the leaky oil pressure sensor, is on P215/75R15s, non-CAD axle, hoping for the bigger front outer joints, have an Explorer 31-soline with fresh Traction-Lock to swap under, wanting an Aussie up front, will eventually swap to a GM 4.8L LSx V8 and an AX-15, ( AW4 now ) wanting to start with 245/75R16s.
I got the drum-brake version of the 8.8", after confirming 31-spline, because the '95-up discs are crap, they're not vented, and they use a micro-drum parking brake.
I'm researching rotors to use '77 Eldorado rear calipers. I had this brake upgrade all figured out when I had this axle under an S-10, the shafts got drilled for the GM lug pattern, but I never bought those rotors, and I'm not inclined to buy them just to drill them.
16" wheels means I can fit 12.5" rotors, Explorer rotors were more like 10".
I'll post up info when I get it together.
This will be a low-CoG build.

 

Welcome to the site, You have a lot of ideas for you XJ. Hope you have a great time getting things the way you want them. We got my son a XJ when he was 15 yrs old and we have had loads of good times fixing this and lifting it.

 

Welcome to the forum. Good plan. Let's start a build thread

 

Welcome from England.

 

Did that, no responses.

 

Cool, thanks!

 

Thanks! I hope you're showing those Rovers what time it is.

 

Welcome to CF!
Pics on your build thread helps a lot.
