Thanks for the info guys! Got the engine pulled Monday. (more progress would have been made except Fallout 4) It came out faster and easier than I thought! We started building a framework out of 2x4's last night. I think it's going to work out ok. Going to have to haul this carcass off soon but I have a few more things to harvest first.

Been watching XJ's YJ's and TJ's on craigslist. It's rather entertaining to see the range of junk versus price's. One running and drivable for the same price as another rusted out shell. The goal is to substitute sweat equity for money so I'm watching for that "get this thing outta my yard". Time I got.

Any thoughts on a solid service manual? Haynes and Chilton's tend to blow, though if you get both you almost have a real manual.
