Hey guys This is my 95 XJ Cherokee.
This was last week climbing the jump up on the Burrup Peninsula with stock height,stock wheels and bald cracked rears
didnt touch a thing, meanwhile every second patrol and cruiser ruins their sidesteps with 2 inch lift aha.
I have just recently had a replacement engine fitted with all new gear fitted (Waterpump,alloy rad,hoses,thermostat,sender,sensor,reco injectors etc.)
Currently having an issue with the Temperature sender at the rear of the block not working properly on my gauge. Was working and now it just reads 75 no matter what. Going to an auto sparkie to check resistance and maybe make me a new female plug for that pin because my plug and its guts are a bit "how do you do". Had an inadequate mix of coolant in the car due to adding concentrate and then coming to blows with the painful air bleeding required on this car, so i lost a lot of coolant and was filling more with water. So had the temp fine with that mix but this time i mixed 20 litres of coolant to the correct mixture and started again. Bled it with just the cap off one day. then the next took the top rad hose off, filled it and tried to put on as fast as possible. same was done with the top heater hose, then i had a coke style bottle with the ass cut out of it jammed into my rad with plumbers tape and half full of coolant. got heaps of air out but without the gauge working i cant see my progress. Top rad hose and cool side of my rad still feel too hot compared to before so i basically hate my car right now
Gonna have a tinker tomorrow and see where i can get.
I resealed the diffs(Used a brand new rubber Ford Falcon plug for the rear Dana35) with full synth oil and spray painted the covers in Killrust silver.
Love the aggressive power offroading and cant wait to take it out again for some fun
Once i sort my heating and temp gauge issue i need some advice on where to go next. I would like to fit an american 4.5 inch lift kit and 32s.
Thinking this:

Do i need anything else like yoke related or whatever?
where is best to purchase the correct width 15 inch rims to fit good 32s for this setup?
Cheers, im sure i should start a thread somewhere but im just dumping where im at in this first post to say hello, ask a few questions and post pics and vids of my XJ
Cheers for lookin
