Hey!
Anyone ever do the stock XJ tire mount swap?
I have the '89 XJ with the rear tire tailgate swing mount.
...............* if only I could have added "doo-hickey", I'd sound real technical.
I know I need to swap the bumper as well... not a problem.
My question is related to the upper mount on the right side rear quarter panel.
Sorry, no pic's at the moment....
............:keegirl: "doo-hickey" mount?
It's 2 star screws to pull it off. Which I've done before to de-rust and paint it.
I believe there is additional support inside the panel where the upper hinge piece bolts to the body.
Is that support going to be in the '93 that I'm going to put the spare tire "doo-hickey" swing mount?
:watermelon:
Sorry :bang: doo-hickey is just stuck in my head.
Anyway, do I need to deal with extra support?
