Thank you Buxmj for the headliner . It’s in amazing condition. It is much firmer than the original. The headliner material is going to be a breeze to put on ->

Awesome .

Beautiful truck! Looking forward to seeing if you put a lift and bigger tires on it

I just looked at all of the progress and I’m impressed! Well done

Had the Cherokee down at Aamco transmission for them to check out the quirks in the transmission. They rebuilt it the first part of last year. Pretty much had it the whole time I was away working - 8 months 😳. Three weeks ago, I called and they said it was going on the rack that day. He called me back an hour later asking if I had a kill switch in it, because they couldn’t get it to start. I stopped by to see where they were at. They said it was some rodents had eaten some wiring and they fixed it. While working on it the hood cable broke, so they replaced it and also had to put in a new coil and kick down cable. It’s done though. Bringing it to the shop to have them fix a few things next week then it’s going up for sale.

Found my front drive shaft outside behind a plant along the wall of the house -> It had been out there for years and I thought it was in the corner of the garage with the other drive shafts . It was frozen shut and rusty. I kept oiling it with marvelous mystery oil and eventually freed it up. Took the wire wheel and cleaned off the rust then sprayed it with a few coats of paint -> Hopefully it’s the correct drive shaft - I have a few lol. It’s going to need a special u-joint for it to bolt up to the yolk of the front D44 before I put it in.

Love what you’re doing with this truck. And I agree with everyone on the wheels - greatness!

Got in the new carpet. Color matched the headliner material very well too -> TBC - Rich

Ah yes I had just found the yahoo group after getting my MJ in 04. You switched over here soon after, but I was unaware of the switch until October of 05.

Bump for a possible answer

Never knew that these were an option

Oh boy - just something else ruined from neglect -> Just ordered a replacement from ACC on Amazon. I forgot which color I got last time, so hopefully I picked the right one.

Woo woo!

Thank you . That’s very helpful.

I already have it so I will put it on lol. No rocks out here to worry about getting hooked up on but you never know what is out there to catch on

If you don’t mind taking a picture of it I would appreciate it pizzaman09 that would be great. No rush on that. I don’t have my truck at home

Thank you gogmorgo. Savagedcircuit I will look for those nuts when I get it back

Oh no! That definitely looks like someone got hurt. Looks like it was a nice Comanche too

Thank you . It took a bit of work to get it polished out but I’m very happy with it

It's now almost 1am and I wanted to finish up my weekend project. I've been working on getting the indicator panel on the left side of the dash cleaned up. The last few days after everyone goes to bed - 10:30/11 - I am at the kitchen table buffing out the plastic panel. Holy crap it hasn’t gone over well with the wife lol. I have polishing compound sprayed out over the table and a bit of splatter on the wall . Well worth it though lol. I’m sure you guys will recognize this piece even though it’s not in the dash. It is in really rough shape. I don’t know what is covering up the indicators but they were barely visible-> I used the Novus plastic kit with a couple of buffing wheels on my favorite drill -> Half way through the process-> It took some time to get through it all but it came out amazing-> I love when a plan comes together TBC - Rich

I’m getting everything lined up to go into the Comanche when I get it back. I have found some stuff in the “MJ” stash that I forgot I had. I found a (new to me ) transfer case skid plate. I have no clue how I acquired it or how it goes in? Can anyone show me how this is mounted/attached under the truck?

This is just great

Thank you. I am picking up another headliner soon, but I may get bored and try it anyway.

I have found one, within driving distance from me, from a member on here. So thankful that I can just redo the head board in my color . I think I will store this one incase it can be fixed by someone who is capable of repairing it.
