    NWC - Your other rides.

    More past cars 55 Pontiac '62 Vauxhall Victor Super 101 (mine was white with primer red fenders) '77 AMX (looks pretty much like my current daily driver '82 AMC Spirit) The 304 is in my '73 J4000 (that I rolled this time last year) and is about to get retransplanted into the '77 Jeep J10...

    someone tried stealing my jeep

    Napa sells the lock cyl. I got my column lock in '99 for $100 in Tacoma

    someone tried stealing my jeep

    I think that's off a GM car or something. Mine has the hinge on the inside.

    Can a lifted XJ really tow 5000lbs?

    MJs are much better for towing! I pull full size Jeeps with mine (up to 6500lbs) on 33" tires on dry pavement. (need a trailer with brakes for wet roads!)

    Tires?

    33/9.50/15 has got my 2wd places a LOT of 4x4s can't go! (there were 2 at the bottom of the cliff that couldn't make teh corner this past winter. I could've made it the rest of the way with my home made snow chains, but decided not to chance it)

    DO NOT REMOVE PLUG ON AX5

    2wd has the filler in a lower location on the opposite side. (found that out with my '86 MJ when I converted to 4x4)

    Bump Steer & stock XJ?

    trac bar loose at the frame on driver's side? EVERY MJ and XJ I have had so far had this problem and that was the cure to most of it!

    I use the Car Gard lock to protect the ignition

    Opinion on Rear End

    Check the exhaust isn't hitting the driveshaft. There is a shield behind the pinion yoke that can get bent and make horrid noises but no real damage done! The D35 in my 2wd '87 MJ has almost 300,000 miles on it (the BA 10/5 was rebuilt by a Peugeot tech at 110,000) and even running 33" tires...

    Electric Fan test?

    Flick the switch to AC. Fan will come on unless it or the relay (or fusible link) is dead.

    Random Bolt

    That bolt looks like one of the intake bolts or an old trac bar bolt (Been lifted? People put stuff like that up on the frame)

    Does your heated seats work?

    Mine do when I park my truck facing the sun (they are solar powered!)

    Houston? We have a problem (D35 axle wanted)

    Hopefully this is the Texas forum? (I'm in the PNW) My buddy Eddie in Houston has an AMC Eagle with a scattered rear diff. He needs a non-c clip XJ or MJ rear diff with 3.55 gears. Since it's a 4 cyl, D35 is fine. If someone can do a little cut/weld of brackets for him (XJ is revered to Eagle...
