leaf spring and shocks
decided to add secondary leaf spring for my rear to decrease axle wrap,
my friend's gift :D - 4's of EFS shock absorber,
actually they are for TLC80/105 and Patrol Y60
rear shocks fit nice using BPE at top
front bottom end is too wide to fit in BPE, needs little touching
done :D

camshaft position sensor
a XJ died while driving in traffic. Tried to start, cranking
cranking, no start at all. Checked gas and it is there at port on fuel
rail. Got a code 12 54 (camshaft sensor) 55. Called my son and tow to
home. Then removed distributor cap and rotor then I found little metal
with magnet is loose and saying hello and and waving at me from behind of pulse ring :(
magnet
removed pin at bottom end gear, distributor disassembled, it is a part with many funny name
magnet should be there vertically, the black plastic stripes were also broken, originally they should be at the both sides of magnet, here it is used temporarily for photo, magnet wants to jump to hall sensor at opposite side
got a two part epoxy and used some copper wire to mount magnet to plastic
wait till epoxy harden enough and more epoxy there, where it needed
Looks good to go
Assembled and ready to install in engine.
Pulse ring removed and found a permanent magnet of Distributor pickup coil (part# 53009077) was loose

Distributor installed, PCM reset, and time to start engine. Wooohoo it works. Engine turned off and left for 24 hours to cure epoxy fully
Anyway, ordered new one, repaired one may not last long.
