Ok. So it's not the Fastest Build In the World, but it's MY Fastest Build Ever.
Specs: '89, 6 cylinder, Auto, 242 transfer case, 248k miles and has rust.
History: I got the XJ back in April for pennies on the dollar. See the pics below and you'll know why. I started piecing it together, however, some priorities took precedence (Little baby ). So, I recently made a last minute decision to swap the lift and axles from my '99 to the '89 before JV.
It passed smog with flying colors. All I did was replace the cat, muffler, gas cap, and plugs.
I call it "The Beast" because it was a PAIN IN THE A$$ to drive home. - it pulled in every direction, it was louder than a 747, it was hotter than a pizza oven, it would only make half left turns, and it smelled like butt crack. It's one tough machine. Even though it's been fighting me the whole way, I think I'm taming it. :loveu:
