What did you do to your XJ today

Re: Re: What did you do to your XJ today

It's getting to be quite the puzzle.

Right?! I need to start a log book of what year, make, and model of what I have parts from.

No, I got a jcr skid. By the way those springs were rubicon express 3.5" right?

If I remember correctly they are. Is the original RE part number still visible?

They were pretty well used....are they not working out for you?

They sit I bit higher than my last set. But I'm going to put stock shackles on and taller coils.

replaced cracked apn header and put in 99 intake, sounds so good now!

I hear that intake is better - more volume, less restriction...

--- Will it fit on a RENIX ? -
my engine was rebuilt - well a few years ago, but not many miles, would like better mileage, more power, but would settle for smoother running,

 

[Mnkyboy]

No, the ports line up different between the Renix and HO. It may bolt up but wont be very efficient, they raised the ports around 5/8" on the HO.

Also there are also conflicting reports on the 99+ intake mod, there is actually dyno evidence showing a decrease in power.

This is the best write up I could find on it. And I have swapped the late model intake on to my 94 and haven't noticed much.

So is that Blossom, Bubbles, or Buttercup?

Thank you, Google.

Fortunately i watch powerpuff girls with my daughters regularly. I recognised mojo.

 

[mojojojo]

Haha! She hasn't picked out a name yet. But she has created a account

 

[mojojojo]

Today's progress. Started having no start/idle issues again. Back to troubleshooting mode this week!

Stared at it sitting sadly in the driveway because it has no rear driveshaft right now so I can't have any fun with it. :tear:

Picked up a few things.... Installed a rubicon express trackbar brace on my brothers 95. The bone head I bought it from clearly built it, wheeled it, and never touched anything. Everything is rusty, everything needs grease, the trackbar bracket bolts were finger tight, and I haven't really checked things out yet..... Apparently general maintenance and upkeep were not his thing.

Trackbar is now tight, and with the brace installed seems to be good. 90% of the squeaks I was hearing were simply the trackbar bracket moving...

What kind of driveshaft do you need?

I have a few drive shafts laying around, what kind do you need?

 

[stang65]

lowered it 3/4" in the rear and 1/2" in the front

I've had a donor throttle body laying around for some time... big thanks to my buddy Dean Murray for his generosity and donating this to the cause.


After a few months of this thing collecting dust, it's destiny finally came to fruition....




Precision machined to 61mm with a very fine tolerance.



Some of the perks to having a machine shop at your disposal...

filled the gas tank and found has settled more and looks like its now at around 1" maybe 1 1/4" lower than before time to take another spacer out of the front.
