    I bought my XK brand new and the odometer now reads 103,000 miles. However I didnt have the speedometer calibrated for the first two years of being lifted with bigger tires so its probablly closer to 108,000. It has been lifted over 3 1/2 years and has seen a lot of off roading.

    Matt, thats exactly how mine looked. But my lower ball joints are shot and popping on both sides. Also the LCA strut fork bushing is destroyed.

    Rock Auto is the place to go for the LCA's. They have two different brands, I went with the more expensive of the two.

    That's good to know, 100,000 mile parts. I like your upper control arms, JBA? Let us know what you think after you get them in and drive is some.

    Yeah they are JBA (Jeepin by AL). Originally ordered the Rocky Road Outfitter HD UCA's but had a bad experience with them this week. You can read about that here...

    The EGR valve is an easy install. Just make sure you have a big enough wrench to get the old one out and new one in. It's pretty tight in there so I'd recommend cutting the wrench in half and using the open end.
