The XJ's been put back on the back burner again. Seems like every time I think I can pick up a wrench again I end up with a few other things to deal with. Some for the better, some not so much. If we keep away from the 8 weeks of -20deg weather maybe this winter will be semi productive at least.

Think I'll be pulling the flywheel off my 2.8L and getting it balanced and resurfaced. Seems in good enough shape and that should let me get things together and I can move closer to a functional vehicle again.

Steve, the tranny listed in the Haynes is an RPO M49 as the manual 5 speed that would have been with that engine. Not one that I've heard of before.
