Thanks for the feedback.

I thought a spring conversion might improve ride quality, I'll not be doing much hauling with it !

Budget is probably around £10k. I'll likely do an engine rebuild as the head is leaking slightly. As new a new chain in the transfer, along with various other repairs. I could do with a respray too.

Has anyone replaced their leaves for springs ? I've an '87 shorted with 8" Skyjacker lift. 6" springs and 2" spacer at the front. The rear leaves have spacer links. The driver side leaf is sagging around 2" lower than the passenger side. Short story, it is going in for work and I thought about getting it converted to springs all round. What are your thoughts ?

That is an awesome colour..... Red is awesome too, but that is the 1st green one I've seen

And I've just bought another two Xj's for spares.....

I might be able to get hold of the original door mirrors, bit i'm not 100% sure what I'm doing to do with her yet, other than get her back on the road. My son is desperate to go an tow people out of ditches. He's a Matt's Recovery fan !

That's great info to have .... thanks.
