Hello CC!

[FlexdXJ]

Well, as some of you know, I am what you would call a postwhore on a certain website dealing with XJ's! :D Well, I will finally have an MJ here in a couple days and I know ZERO about the 2.8 it has in it other than its not very desirable. I look forward to learning more about the engine as well as some MJ specific stuff and wheeling with some of you guys other than that 89elimintaor character! :nuts:

 

BTW the truck is an 86 4wd longbed with the 2.8 and torque flight 904 auto. It has a factory rollbar and 65k miles though! :clapping:

do they just let anyone in this place now?

Welcome FlexdXJ. There is a minority of people here who thinks the 2.8 is OK. The majority thinks they're junk. I've owned and drove the p*ss out of a couple S10'S with the 2.8 and have several XJ and MJ with the 2.8. I have a '86 MJ with the 2.8, 5sp, 4WD, LWB, 31'S and 3;55.Dern nice and dependable truck.

Thanks for the info man, It seems to run good even though the compression is a little low in one cylinder. Gonna drive it before I hand him the cash because its gotta make it 30 miles home. I still have the XJ as my DD/Wheeler, so no worries on it being an everyday vehicle.
