You’re off to a good start with that list, It helps that you have a 44 sitting around :smiling_imp: So what was wrong with it in the first place? Fuel filter? The only thing I can add to your list is recovery points first lol

9

So I guess you liked my buddy’s XJ. Glad it went to someone who’s not just gonna drive it into the ground. Gotta keep em alive.

10

the fuel filter was wicked nasty & I had to replace the ignition switch today
The tow points will be inergrated into the bumpers mounting setup

ya bob was pretty cool gave me a hell of a deal and replaced the fuel filter too.

11

that’s a hell of a list. a lot of work. I just welded the floors in my XJ drivers side and passenger side, took me like 9 hours to do but what the hell I got nothing better to do

12

So I can call you for help when I’m ready to do mine. :laughing:

13

feel free

14

Pulled the carpet out of the back today.

I think I have a little bit of work ahead of me.

15

Holy $hit! :open_mouth: I think your gonna need more than that can of Coke to remove that rust! LOL

16

Crown has the panels for the xj

17

Cut Out all the crap & patched together a new floor in the rear today out of 16 gauge from Lowes.
I tried to get it from South County Steel but they failed to call me back in time.
& I just saw Axles post about crown

18

hope my sons doesn’t look like that under the carpet.
