    Again.....what is a "REAL XJ"?

    I still have a real XJ after 32 years. 90 Laredo. Electric windows still work, electric locks still work, AC(needs R12 but works,) heat and defrost are fine. Back seat is gone, but it's a two door, the kid is gone, and the wife doesn't like to wheel. It's got a built 4.1, 11-1 compression ratio...

    Engine rebuild guidance

    I live at 6k feet, so much will not apply. I have a 90 with all stock electrical. The last rebuild made into a 4.1. It has a home ported dual port head, 11-1 compression ratio, stock intake manifold, bored T-body, Mopar 2.5 headers and exhaust, Hesco cam. 4 hole stock injectors, and it runs...

    Replacing my entire cooling system

    Water pumps have a significant effect on cooling. The last time I overheated at 10k feet, it was because the flowcooler water pump I had for ten years had no vanes left. With the same cheap two row aluminum radiator, and a Hesco water pump and an 4.1l engine with a 11-1 compression ratio and...

    FYI tire carrier bushing set

    You might consider just cutting it off and using an aftermarket trailer axle welded to it and the bumper, aftermarket. That's what I did to mine, I doubt I kept the factory piece, but I'll try to remember to look for it. It currently holds a 35" tire. Bearings in the holder need attention...

    Hesco (Melling) High Volume Oil Pump

    I had a Hesco pump installed in my last engine rebuild a couple years ago. This is in a 90 on 35's at 6k feet altitude. The engine is overbored, with an 11-1 compression ratio, HO heads, Mopar headers, bored T-body. It moves the beast. And it's really hard to get the beast hot. I did once...

    Lipstick on a pig

    Good question. My 90 developed shorts in the brake lights and then in the tail lights. Brake lights were fixed with a new line back to the brake lights, but the tail lights also have short between the fuse and the switch. Still working on that.
