How bad you want it?

You can have mine, but it's in the tank, in the XJ, and I don't when I'll have time to pull it for you. It'll be a while.

Come get it, it's yours.

About 95% sure I will be going Saturday

I know sounds like a stupid question, but does it have tow hooks yet?
Otherwise, it's a good start. What lift are you adding?

So looking for a good used pump somebody might have that I can use. one from a 4.0 XJ 87-91 will also work

I have one in the trail box you can borrow...Just need it back before the next long distance trip.

No tow hooks but i have a rear reciever so i was going to put a strap in it. The front bumper and the front part of the "frame" is all messed up from being wrecked by the PO so i was going to wrap a strap around the bumper if necessary. I have a 3 inch superlift(maybe) from Robert that will go on very soon

We can wrap a strap around the front axle if we need to and I will be gentle!

No worries... it's a XJ. Heck,the few times they get stuck, we just give'm a bump.

Nothing wrong with tow hooks if ya need them............

Coppertop · 12-27-2009, 11:58 AM

My putor crashed last night.Think I got it it up and running again.Time will tell.....

Had a blast.... Tony that little red XJ of yours done a great job.Think it had more to do with the guy behind the wheel.Hope to wheel with you again.

We finished the day by extracting a Stock Ford Ranger with street tires which lost his brakes and four wheeldrive.Matt and Tom tag teamed to winch him up the hill and I towed him to the front parking lot..

My auto trans quit shifting into low gear.. Had to unplugg the TCU and shift it manuel most of the day.

Heres my pics.......http://s529.photobucket.com/albums/d...in%20Dec%2009/

Replaced the TPS and the trans is shifting fine.:confused:

First time I've seen a bad TPS do a high gear default.
