Newbie to the Jeep Community, just purchased an '86 XJ. Specs will be posted as well as pictures when I get her running next weekend. Lookin' forward to my first build thread and makin' some new friends!

 

Welcome!! I'm in Northwest Houston, and a returning Jeep owner.

 

Welcome to CF.

 

welcome

 

Thanks all, picked her up after class today. Boy she's all original for sure, only thing that's changed in 26 years are the fluids and the brakes it seems. 189K on the clock, gonna start the tranny rebuild in the morning.

 

Thank is a Sweet Looking 26 y/o ☺...Welcome to the CF

 

Pretty clean looking 86

 

Thanks guys! Didn't accomplish much today, slept in a little bit later than I'd of liked. Removed speakers from the rear hatch, 10+ year old 6's found their way into there some how; removed for hatch replacement. Started the laundry list of repairs needed cosmetically.

-Floor Pan (Drivers side only possibly)
-Rhino Line floors and undercarriage
-New Doors and hatch off newer XJ
-Aftermarket A/C possibly, don't know how to approach this.
-Double Din install
-8 speaker set-up in the works, oh, and also 4 tweeters.
-3.5" Lift
-16" rims, whichever set I can afford at that time.
-Midnight Metallic Blue paint, black bushwackers logos and grille assembly.

the list will grow I'm sure, but I need to get her purring first. Battery has been charging all day and still can't get enough power to crank.... Don't want to buy a new battery if she won't run though Sore and tired from rugby, off to bed... as soon as I tackle this all-nighter I got for this essay. *procrastination*

 

hey I saw that on Craigslist! Nice lookin for the age, Im also out here in cypress off eldridge and louetta
