when i bought my truck it had a 3" coil spacer on the front and AAL in the rear, makes sit real level, and looks good, but it does stiffen it quite a bit.

i have only been hunting since 04, but with a gun ive got around 8-9 deer, with the MJ.....4! the only buck was a small 8 point. but my favorite is duck hunting, i can't wait, it open this Saturday :banana:

WOW April?!? i vote keep it! don't sell it! tell mommy to get over it, put a dang car seat in it and drive it! :thumbsup: :D :D

i tried once and didnt like there answer, i tried twice and came up with the same answer, stupid numbers :rotf:

holy cow :eek: i hope he was ok, looks like that would hurt

is that a hole in your diff cover?

well hurry up, we need to get some pictures of them all :D :rotf: and maybe some of this?

sry no pictures, but i was tin man! from wizard of oz, ( i have never seen the movie) i went to a church thing, they call it Trunk or Treat ended up having over 1200 kids show up last night wanting candy! :eek: can you believe we didn't run out of candy, there was hundreds of dollars of candy there for the kids, but it sure was fun.

broke my coolant tank cap ( i don't know when), and ended up pumping all my anti-freeze onto the ground at Farmers Elevator this after noon, then spent the next hour trying to get anti-freeze back into the engine. man I'm on a roll of breaking stuff :fs1:

Wow, ok boys cool your jets :eek: :D :D Yes i was just asking for advise, and i thank you guys for your input. i don't have any low oil pressure that i know of, i just want to keep it that way. aemsee i understand your point of view, and thought about it, but i know how my 4.0 has been treated for the last 18 years, i have all the receipts for every oil change it has had, and any other work that was done since 1991, i also know how it was drove those years and it as been well taken care of, i know exactly whats wrong/right with my motor, so once i have this work done ill know ill be in shape for quite a while, and yes there is always the chance that something else could suddenly go out, but I'm will to take that chance here. i figure since i know everything about this motor why buy one that i know nothing about? A friend of the family as a 87-88 XJ with the 4.0 that was pushing 500,000 miles with just regular maintenance, nothing major had been done to it, till the tree fell on it in a windstorm and smashed it flat. :fs1: anyway I'm crossing my fingers that i might be able to get that many out of mine :chillin: and thanks to the mod that cleaned up my thread :bowdown: :cheers:

Well the main reason I'm doing all this is the engine has almost 220,xxx miles, the rear main is almost gone and the front is leaking, so I'm going to get that fixed no matter what, the rest of it is kinda cause i have the money now for it, and i plan on using this truck for the next 2 years as my DD, and i want to know for sure that there is nothing wrong with it, I'm really paranoid about oil pressure and scared to death my oil pump will quit 8) and from what ive read from all you great folks is if you got it open, do it,it will saves time and money down the road, and yes the crank will be looked over real good, and if scored will be reground, thanks guys :cheers: GATOR88- :fool:

ok ill add that to my list, thanks. anyone else?

My truck is going into the shop this week to have some motor work done I'm having front and rear-main seals replaced, crankshaft bearings, a melling high-flow oil pump installed, timing chain and gears replaced. anything else i should have done while its at the shop and opened up? Thanks

Cleaned my TB this morning and check my EGR valve and in the process broke my damn ballast resistor :fs1: so i got a new one of them put on.

Checked all vaccum lines today looking for a reason why it wants to die on cold starts in the morning :hmm:

that is so true :roll: :rotf: :rotf:

You know, I didn't see it like that. You may be right. :cheers: thats the way i read it "thenew wife" :yes:

holy crap :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool:

haha thats great :rotf:

:clapping: :clapping: this has been very interesting, as I don't know squat about clutches :oops:

that helped thanks, A couple years back, a lady down the road has SWB, 87, 2wd, 2.5L with the AW-4, it wasn't best of condition but was not horrible, and it ran, I asked her twice about selling it she, said no, couple week's later she had it hauled to the crusher! :headpop: :headpop: :headpop: :headpop: I was willing to pay more than what she got for just scrap metal :rant:

:rotfl2: :rotfl2:

man now i'm confused. :doh:

that was just ugly :no:

did they not put an auto behind the 2.5 in the XJ's after 86?
