How much

[yumpet]

its 97 but there is no LCA mounts makes it hard to make stock again

Keep it.

It's cheaper as a daily driver and in REALITY - if you buy an FSJ you will need a second vehicle to get out and about when it (regularly) breaks. With fuel prices where they are be prepared to expend 23l/100km with the 360 up front. You may want to keep the XJ for no other reason....

FWIW

you reckon a FSJ breaks more then a XJ???? i was always told they were bullet proof

[OzJeeper]

You woz told wrong. The FSJ is just another compendium of steel and plastic and given sufficient miles/Km's they will give problems just like any other high usage machine.

My simple advise here is to have a backup machine for when they do break - and they will because you will now use the FSJ (or similar) to do the hard work. Hard work they will do but with increasing years the likely hood of breakage becomes a real time factor here.
Added to the mix is the fuel usage of a 360cc V8 in an old tech vehicle. I use mine for local tracks only and it's LPG driven. Fuel cost is down...

All I meant to say....FSJ's break just like any other high use machines - and they are old - veteran in fact. Just don't rely on them for getting to work and back if needed!

reds not the best........... WTF i reckon red is one of the best colours to hide scratches and dirt and dust, if i was to have any other colour it would only be white or light grey

i love my red 4x4s

Agree with OZJ - a FSJ isn't really a great answer for a DD.
