turned into an all day, rip-the-carpet-out, grind rust, re-run EVERY wire I hid over the past 20 years... surprisingly, was not as badly rusted as I thought.
nope, the battery is located in the back. those are battery and winch cables. gave up trying to fit it in the engine bay with a SBC 350
Amps for the HU and sub are under the rear seat.
Now that everything is out, I'm using it as motivation to properly rewire everything -- put a fusebox in, run wires intelligently rather than haphazardly, etc.
oh ok, and I thought about a 350 swap when my motor went, but decided on a cammed 4.0 instead. I also thought about putting a second battery back there but didn't wanna do the work, although ill end up running wiring anyways cuz I want a hookup for a winch back there someday
personally I want to do either the cummins R2.8 ($$$$$) or a 2JZT in a XJ funny thing is... a 2JZ will almost bolt up to the transmission since the same trans was used in supras
It will fit without modifying the intior if you don't plan on welding it to the A,B,C or D Pillars. I do recommend welding it to the pillars if you don't the cage will shake when driving.
