Hey Everyone..

My name is Kyle and Im a jeep addict.

Just picked up a 89 XJ for 250.00! Figured Im on a bunch of other Jeep forums whats one more!

Im mostly from the JK world but this new project will change that.

Figured Id come hang out here a bit and talk some XJ talk.

Ive owned a few Jeeps in the past but new to the XJ world.

My XJ will be mostly for the trail but every now and than a daily driver.

I pick her up Wednesday..

Details:
Completely Stock
Cracked Tranny
179K 4.0L Auto
Hasnt started in 2 years. Ran great before Tranny Cracked.
XJ is from TN. No Rust at all.
Some minor body damage, mostly just bumpers.

Looking forward to talking to yall and starting my new Project!

hey not to sound creepy but the day u transported this jeep did u go to Mc D's near Maple Ave in Lisle IL? I could have sworn i saw that XJ being trailered there recently. i was looking at it thinking that looks like a nice start of a great project.


btw welcome

NxtGenCowboy

Yes sir.. My buddy's shop is right there. thats where I got it from.

Loud Dodge Ram Towing it.



After digging into it a little more, its completely gutted interior wise.

The trans maybe good but transfer case is blown.. 4 inch whole in the side.

Picking up a trans and transfer case tonight with 75k on it for 350.00

I need a power steering pump, pulley, hoses..

few other hoses... AC will be ripped out.

Ripped off exhaust, that'll be replaced with a system. Sounds kinda good with no exhaust

I have a whole list of other parts I am trying to find, I'll post that up shortly.
