dunked my XJ's alternator a couple times last weekend wheeling and after a bit of searchin it seemed the ZJ 136 amp scenario was the way to go
so after using my lunch break on both tues and wedn this week and hittin the local u-pull yards and strikin out both places
I then called my junkyard contact thru work and ordered a 98 ZJ 5.2 136 amp alt
it gets there and the elect connection is waaaaay different than my 99's alt
so I say F it and call back and order a standard one for my XJ
they misunderstood and send me a 90 amp job from a 98 XJ and it looks identical to the ZJ one
third time was the charm I got a 2k1 alt fr 50 bux and its in and up and running as of tonite
but its taken me a week to get the XJ back on the road
all from a negative green trail last weekend with a little muddy water
but I did order and install a OEM front skid to try and avoid this again
