Put in 2 new oxygen sensors in this arfo, that seems to have fixed the running like a busted $@#%. The oxygen sensors were covered in thick black soot.
Used a Bosch LS07 and a ACA OX204 picked them up from Repco just on $200.00 for them. Better than the $197 and 185 + GST from Jeep and had to they did not have them in stock.
So now I hope we have got the transmission, torque converter and Jeep running okay.
Thank you to all for their contribution to the sticky posts from the likes of GoJeep and others your a great help. Greatly appreciated.

I believe that swapping the rear springs will do very little as I have heard that the front spring sag to give the drive side drop. Have also heard that the springs are designed to take extra load or 100 kg's in the front because of LHD.
Anyone heard this before?

So would swapping the front springs around do anything? I had heard that the springs on the left are heavier than the right hand springs to suit left hand drive and as our xj has the spare tyre on the right hand side as well as the driver and the battery is what causes the sag.
Can anybody confirm or dispell this?

Doesnt GoJeep mension on his site that the XJ has some design that makes the mounts sit higher/lower on the one side? so springs have to go left and right to compensate?
