My newly purchased '91 XJ Limited is all stock, no lift, and as I've been trying to mend her wounds from a careless previous owner, I'm come across some sticky problems.
1) I believe someone was driving it around town in P/T 4x4 for a while as that's what gear it was in when I test drove it both times. It's giving me a light popping sound from the front tires (primarily the driver's side) when I'm doing slow turns or sometimes just driving. Basic suspension parts will be replaced soon, but what should I look for? NOTE: The poor suspension is completely shot, as it's the original setup and the car is at 169k.
2) The overhead display is non functioning. All the dome lights work, just not the display. Any ideas?
If I could get help with these two, that'd be great! There are many many many more issues with the poor girl, but most of them are pretty simple and will be fixed in the next 2 weeks. Hopefully, by month's end, she'll be feeling like 20k miles again!
