That's awesome, nice photo man

Plenty of reviews on it already if you were to search.

I've hit both lower panels and actually crushed one and part of the upper panel when I slid into a bad rut pitting me against a tree, cut and fold w a custom protruding bumper would've saved me. You don't usually hit the bottom, but the side yes. I will agree a CnF w nothing looks stupid to me...

My own dad and I had to weld my roof skin on due to it being replaced in 2003 and held on with only panelbond glue? That was no small task so I can't imagine redoing the entire structure! Thanks for keeping one more XJ on the road!

Can agree with Evam^^^ whole build is looking spectacular, makes me jelly I'm still rocking stock frame and warped JCR sliders. Haven't seen a good build thread like this in awhile either, thanks for documenting it for us to enjoy.

There's a whole thread on it on here, should point you to the right direction.

dont do ittt! Seriously, just cut and clean it up real well. Also gotta think about down time building a whole new rig when you could be out wheeling.

I'd like to know how that fuel pressure gauge was set up on the rail. Seems like it'd be a very handy thing.

Throttle body spacer are absolutely useless unless using a TBI set up. Bored throttle body is one of the only "power adders" that works. Now whether it's worth the $300 or so for the 5-10hp you get, is up to you. You can get about another 20-30hp with a proper intake, bored tb and exhaust set...

Put it on an alignment rack that lifts the axles up, not the body, and listen for it. Or just four stable jackstands would work.

Not to hijack the thread, but do yall ever have issues with the c clips not coming out after hard wheeling?

So theoretically I just need a 31" driveshaft, like out of a 96-97 ZJ? The u-joints are the same so it will bolt up. You know what length yours is by chance?

Edit: I said i was going to use it just for testing which i know would be fine, but if i can run one permanently f/r, it would be cheaper and easiest for the time being if i can just grab another front while i'm getting replacement D30 shafts that i broke. I'm also going to be stretching the...

Okay, I'll make sure to do that. Does anybody know if a front driveshaft will work lengthwise in the back? Stock wheelbase and np231, just an SYE. I know you can with an auto and a SYE but its an inch shorter trans. Thought I'd ask before i take off to the junkyard.

The inside torn down.. Figured out that one thing I don't have is the manual shifter plate. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
