HI-CNTRD - 1990 XJ Project
Drahcir495 replied to Drahcir495's topic in Member Projects: Other Cool Stuff
What I thought would take an hour ended up taking a few more. I decided to get the full soft top on the Scrambler. I knew there would be a learning curve putting it on since I haven’t touch it in 8 years. I found the top and frame work pretty quickly. I took an inventory of the parts and realized that I was missing a few important pieces 🤬. I wen through boxes of Jeep parts and and found all but one piece; a section of support rod. Good for me that that was the only thing missing because I went to Lowes and grab a matching diameter rod . I forgot how good the top looks on -> I was told by the company that make the cover that it would not fit the Jeep with a full hard top which sucks because the rain collects in the back and pulls the front back. I am very happy they are wrong -> -

I finally finished the last of my headliner parts. I have had doing this on my “to do” list for a while now; the sun visors. Friday I made myself tackle the job. They came out nice. I stripped the old material off the visors and laid them on the headliner fabric after spraying it with the 3M Super 77. Folded the sides over and closed them up. The drivers side had a broken wire so I had to solder that back on-> The don’t look gray in the pictures, but they are. I installed them back in the Jeep obviously-> Put in some LED lights for the vanity sun visors, but only the drivers side comes on? I will have to figure that out at another time. -
Insanely nice use of lumber. So impressive.

I have a wicked BLT recipe. It uses mayonnaise, lettuce and bacon on toasted bread. Nah, I can only make Dintymoore stew.

I must have moved the vacuum ball at some point, but of course I cannot remember when? It’s now under the coolant turtle. Looks all good there. -

Hot as heck in the Jeep with the air just slowly blowing out the vent at bottom of windshield . I was told it was probably a vacuum line. I followed all the lines to check them and located an unattached line - yes! That did not do anything. It seemed like the air-conditioning relay switch was bad because the fan did not get up to speed. Got a new BWD switch relay from advanced and replaced the old one -> That did not fix the problem 🙄. I checked the vacuum lines again and with my fingers located a crack in one line. As soon as I cut and reconnected it I had my air blowing out of the dash vents. So if the air is just blowing out of the defrost vents it’s probably a cracked or broken vacuum line. -
Yeah, because I was going to say that was the most impressive conversation I’ve ever seen. I really like that truck Pete

It was presented as a Cherokee conversion on the two door Cherokee forum. And something does not look right behind the pillar vents? Too cut off, but could be the picture.

Speedometer Fluctuations
Drahcir495 replied to j_gevans's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I have a similar but stranger issue and here is what kinda worked for my 1990. I lube the cable and did not help. Checked the Speedo cable routing and that was fine. I backed off the connection to the transfercase and that definitely helped. Still only accurate up to 35 mpg with a little fluctuations until 40. Ask all the questions you want here. We have all have needed answers at one point or another -
This must have been a terrifying event. Stay positive and do exactly what the doctors tell you. Glad you’re still posting and easing your way back Into the swing of things. Anything you need just holler out. 👍🏻

Interior colors/paint
Drahcir495 replied to eaglescout526's topic in MJ Tech: DIY Projects and Write-Ups
I have an 89 with the blue interior. I guess it has the navy interior from the list. I used the SEM 15043 Shadow Blue. Great color match. -

I was cleaning out the garage this weekend and I came across stuff I did not know I had IAC new in box -> Temp sensor-> I had to look up in the numbers on the Advanced Auto website to figure out what Jeep they were for? They turned out to be for the 1990 XJ -

Owe! I can only imagine how bad that must have hurt. Glad to hear it was not worse. It is unbelievable what is going on. If I was forced to stay home during this, I would catch myself thinking the same thing about projects with friends.
