Topped up the trans fluid which has helped a lot with the slipping gears, but still not perfect.
It sometimes slips in first and loses all momentum as the revs go way up, and often won't re-engage. I can select low range and all is good.
Haven't done the diffs or tcase yet - they seem OK.
Still no rego so it only gets used on my 700m driveway - up in the morning & down at night which makes it hard to really test what's going on.
How's yours going?

Yeah mate, I'm on the road now and loving it. Just wish the cash kept rolling in so I could get a lift kit for it.

Great! Well done!
I'm lining up a safety inspection (QLD RWC) for this week to let me know what really needs doing to get mine on the road
Fingers crossed for no surprises!

Hi my xj had the cracked exhaust manifold as well, just took it of and spent a hour with a arc welder and ss rods with the current set low the welds have held for three years and the job only cost me a bit of time a pack of rods and a manifold gasket
