Installed my throttle body spacer and additional throttle cable bracket risers. Clenaed all the mud out of the engine bay. And then sat and looked at my pathetic toyo h/t's longing to get some flippin 31's!!!!

I had a similar problem of all the power windows not working from the door panels except the drivers side switch. I took off the door panel and then then switch similar to you. All i ended up having to do was clean the contact points and now everything works great, nice find though if it goes...

so by killer do you mean really good, or very harsh:)?

so i was able to measure it, but had to use the old string and ruler method then do some math. AS far as i can tell it is a 28mm front sway? should i hold off until a can use a dia cliper, or does this sound right?

So i am unable to measure my swy bar at this moment, and am having trouble figuring out the diameter of the stock front and rear sway bars on a 1997 XJ? can anyone help me out real quick?

And my XJ is a 97
