does anyone know how the xj vin is brokedown?   also does anyone know if the id plate under the hood breaks down into suspension info.               the place i pull parts removes all the wheels hard to see the rear it would be nice to just pop the hood and look for a number/letter that corresponds.
build it, beat it, break it, fix it, repeat
