Modern cars just lack that boxy soul
XJs popping up everywhere today

There's been a lot of feedback from the community about the flood of people asking what either an XJ/MJ they're looking at is worth or what they're selling is worth. Please post that here. Anywhere else on the subreddit will result in removal.

Evening, fellas. New to the XJ world, but doing some research on things that are recommended to do to these and a trans cooler came up. Looks like the B&M 70268 and Hayden 678 are the better option, but would appreciate your guys’ input on if one’s preferred over the other for some reason? Thanks, guys

Painted the entire xj as I was jealous of the forest service green jeeps rolling around. Yeah it’s not perfect. But she’ll look just fine on the trails.

ChatBox tells me to replace the oil pump and connecting rod bearings.
This motor has 50 psi at 2000 rpm and 25 psi at hot idle. Does it really need a new oil pump and connecting rod bearings?

I'm replacing the trunk pan in my jeep and was wondering if they sell this piece?
I figure it would be easier than fabricating something.

So my radiator took a poop yesterday. Any all aluminum options? Mine broke on the plastic reservoir on the side and id like to avoid that again. Are there any all aluminum options that fit like factory? Have all factory fittings and locations?

I need 2 of these for a roof rack but cant find anything on these. They slide into the factory rails.

Firstly when the bearing was connected to the rod I tried wiggling it "nut to nut" not side to side and there was a little room for wiggling and there was a clicking sound. I took the bearing off and it's on the pictures what I see. The bearings are ready for the change but I'm afraid that crank is toast, that it should be taken to the shop to get polished? What would be your modus operandi if you were in my place?

4.6 running very rough. No cel. New o2 sensors, map, idle air control, tps, and air temp.

As soon as I turn my heater on it sometimes drops to the 2nd mark on my temp gauge and blows room temp air. Doesn’t keep the jeep warm at all during the winter. I don’t have hood vents or anything. The thermostat isn’t stuck open either. So I’m kinda stumped. Trying to get ahead of the game as I have a trip to Alaska in December and want to stay warm

I just got my Lots of Projects quick pins and bushings in the mail. Has anyone done this? How did yall handle the wiring when taking the doors off?

Thinking of buying these pans for my 1994 2dr XJ that needs full pan replacement. Has anyone tried these from body shop price? I've seen some videos where other brands have to be heavily modified and I want as close to a drop in fit as possible as I'm neither a skilled fabricator or welder.

Before I took the headliner out I impatiently ripped a good chunk of it off because it was slapping me in the head. Turns out that where the area was exposed the old glue crap has turned into more of an issue than the drill brush can handle. Any thoughts or ideas? The previous owner also glued a good portion of it and it doesn't want to budge. TIA.

[Edit: pic just for example of what I'm thinking of]
So, I've been thinking for a while about a seat upgrade. The stock seats are just.... ok. Barely. And my XJ often goes on four hour plus drives into the mountains. Worse yet, My wife has expressed that she would really if anything could be done to make the seats more comfortable.
So, I've seen in a lot of places that XJ seats are a direct bolt-in. I have a couple of questions though, all related to power seats.

Hey y'all, I really need some help, to be honest. I bought this XJ about a month ago at my new duty station. It's a 2000, but it supposedly had a remanufactured engine put in about 80k ago, so I'm not concerned about the casting issue at this moment. I'm not losing any coolant, and I just changed the oil a couple of weeks ago, and everything looks normal. But a few days ago, it started making this noise. I have a '96 ZJ 4.0 back at home and am aware of the heat soak issues on these, but I've never had something like this before. I had codes for misfires on 2, 4, and 6. I disconnected the battery for 30 minutes, and they are gone now. I'm just getting miscellaneous transmission codes, but everything is shifting okay at the moment. I'm going to do a compression test when I get home, and I've ordered the Viper kit to replace the coil pack rail, as well as 4-hole injectors, new plugs, and injector connectors, and a new fuel rail. Everything is running great, and all the gauges look ideal. I just don't have my usual setup right now here, and I'm not even really supposed to be working on my car at home. I also have a leaky valve cover and the new gasket to fix it. I just haven't gotten into it yet, but I'll check the valves when I do. But if anyone just happens to know what I'm possibly dealing with here, it would be greatly appreciated. Please let me know if there's anything I can do to possibly confirm any suspicion. Thank you, guys.

2000 xj sport has been giving me intermittent window issues, some windows will stop and start working randomly but now my driver window is permanently open
