Lol gladly. Just for warning y’all I’m not a beer person but I drink a metric ton of Dr. Pepper.

All MJ owners are welcome! Lol.

Thank Pete and don’t ya worry. There will be. Thank ya and I’m gonna need all I can get.

Lol would’ve been more funny if he was round but still fun. My girlfriend is as well which is how my 84 XJ got his name.

Yup! Lol was he a round dog?

Thank ya! It really was timing! This house I bought was “destroyed” by the people renting it from the seller. So the seller was looking to sell. I threw and offer at them and I said I will take the house as is and they accepted it. It’s honestly not in that bad of shape and just needs some TLC. Gonna actually paint over the weekend before moving in. I will be sure to get plenty of pics. Might even post it as another project lol.

Thank ya! She’s gonna be officially garaged at my new home, along side Chunk when I bring him down here in May.

So I was out in snottsdale today for an hour and decide to take a picture and commemorate the moment. Back in late January early February I decided and was suggested to look for a house after looking at a place to rent. I wasn’t fully aware of what I was getting into but figured why not, especially with the girlfriend moving very soon, I knew I needed a place. Thankfully my parents were able to help and my long time best friends father is a realtor so I was able to work with him on finding a house. Long story short I found a house in late March and just finished signing the closing paper work this morning. I await for it to all be finalized and notarized by the state, in which I will get the keys to my new home this evening. So let the new adventures begin!!

If it’s a manual trans I would be interested in everything in the bell house.

Could have an AMC 20 out back with 4.10 as well. If it’s an auto it might have one of the two axles with 4.56 out back as well cause AMC used Chrysler’s A900 series torqflight trannys

Classic. Just before the Chrysler buy out.

Let me know and I will order them!

So this is the deal with the UCA's. Course they are the same for the XJ all years. It looks like the ZJ TJ and XJ have similar looking UCA's but probably don't interchange or probably were all the same at one point if I had to guess. The LCA's are the same all years

Let me look. I remember something weird about them when I ordered mine and I don't remember what that was.

I feel ya on that. Which is why I ended up ordering new MoPar LCA's and UCA's lol. Course that doesnt mean that my uppers at the axle arent messed up. I know I had to really beat the hell out of the old sleeves for the axle bushing eyes when I had the poly bushings just to get them out. Come to think of it, I think I bent one of the eyes close to each other when pressing out a bushing.

Hey, my control arms and the bushings move from time to time and I don't notice anything bad. I put new bushings in my old LCAs and the LCAs kept walking back towards the middle and I had to hammer them every once in a while back to where they needed to.

I forgot to respond to this. You’re welcome!

I like the electrolysis method. Much more fun and entertaining to watch. Course cleaning the anodes is annoying but worth it to know they are taking the heat of the damage that time has done to your parts.

To a degree. Life got in the way of doing these. I managed to get one cut but the shape needs to be trimmed a little. I need to take the other one apart since it has a great back and use that as the template. But needless to say it is straight forward. The staple situation though on the other hand, I never figured out.

So the tow package could simply be a sales code that might no longer exist or has been over written on Chryslers side.

No problem! Hopefully it is an easy fix.

This is all that is to the tailgate latch setup. Could be simple as one of the bars popped out of the handle mechanism.
