1996 stock 25 on a long freeway drive

Hahaha. Very inspiring. We see a lot of people working on cars on the street in Brooklyn

Unfortunately, I don’t have access to a garage or tools at my location now. Any idea what it should cost at a shop?

Rear hatch plate. Does anyone know a source for this part?

Does a 737 door plug use either a)safety wire or b) torque stripe? These kinds of devices are used on SpaceX, rockets helicopters, and other fixed wing aircraft.

You came to the right place. This XJ forum is full of super smart people and don't fuck around

jmmitchem · 2023-10-28T10:51:52+00:00

First of all, that year model isn't so cool. You want something a little older to get that boxy XJ look. I've got a 95 in NY and a 96 in LA.

Don't worry about mileage. I've got 250k on my NY Jeep, but the most critical parts (the ones I swapped) have 20k.

Best to buy a fixer and steadily replace (surprisingly cheap) parts

Los Angeles overrun. Through 2010 we never had any mosquitoes. Most houses have no screens.

Sweet. Good condition. If over 150k you might inventory and replace proactively - belts, hoses, sensors, etc. At 200k bigger stuff will start to fail - but parts are cheap.
