    '99 XJ: Low MPG and leaking valve cover ... ??

    So, my '99 XJ (4.0 with NP242) has reached it nearly final state (waiting on rock sliders from JCR), to include regearing. I'm getting less than 13mpg. I'm running BFG AT 31x10.50 tires with 4" of lift, SYE, and regeared to 4.10 plus various armor and upgrades. The only engine problems that...

    '99XJ - Passenger Side Clunking

    In the last couple of weeks, I've noticed a pretty prominent clunking sound coming from under the front passenger floor board (in the vicinity of the LCA frame mount). I have new JKS adjustable LCAs installed. Any ideas on how to diagnose and eliminate? Thanks!

    Improving Mileage on Lifted '99 XJ

    I did a 280-mile trip last night and was getting around 14.3mpg in my lifted (4") 1999 XJ Sport (4.0 w/ Auto and NP242 t-case). Did a little googling and found that I should upgrade to 4-hole injectors. Anyone done this? I found these...

    TW driveshaft -- How far extended when installed?

    Dropped off parts at the garage yesterday and looked under the XJ at the newly installed TW double-cardan driveshaft... It appeared to have at least six inches (or more) of spline showing while just sitting in the parking lot. That doesn't seem right to me. Thoughts?

    Diagnosis? Front Driveline Clunking

    As I progress slowly through my build, I'm now at the point where I had to drive my '99 XJ home from the garage with the NP242 (Selec-Trac) TC in "4 Full Time" with no rear driveshaft installed (i.e., in "front wheel drive"). As I made my way home through city traffic, there was a loud and...

    Perfecting my lift ... relocate shock mounts??

    Here's the update ... Spoke with the super-helpful Dirk at DPG and now have JKS J-Flex UCAs and LCAs on the way. He also recommended the JKS rear shock relocator brackets (and they're cheap, so I ordered those as well). AA SYE from Rusty's is on the way and will be installed next week, then...

    IRO u-bolt plates with OME Leaf Springs???

    I have new ARB OME CS033RA leaf springs on the back of my 1999 XJ ... unfortunately, I only received two OME u-bolts in my initial parts order, so the German shop used one on each side and spot welded the nuts on two of original u-bolts to hold the springs on until the other two come in. Will...

    Finally started lifting my 99 XJ ... need thoughts

    Greetings, NAXJA Forum! I am the original owner of a 99 XJ Sport Upcountry with SelecTrac which I ordered from the factory in late 1998. Over the years, I had all of the best intentions to build it out, but other priorities also came between me and my dreams. Recently, I had to decide between...
