    I was reading xjjeff's question and was wondering do all xj's have air forks or is that an aftermarket item? If they do have them, how does one get to the air schrader? I haven't really gotten to work on the ole xj, it has always ran to good to mess with anything. I too am a large man and the front does seem to sag a little.

    If yours has air forks you should be able to unscrew the cap on top of the forks and expose the shrader valve. If there's not one there then you probably don't have them.
    I don't think all models had them.

    Not all models had them. That is why I ended up with a set of forks of of an XS750 (which, by the way, need a new home, I bought a set off of an '83 turbo).
