You always crack me up 😂. I have to be honest - I had to google it. I laughed hard when I saw the airboat ripping through the “alligator” infested waters. Funny stuff there! But maybe 🤔

Just saw that yesterday! Great clip

You should give a try - it really does work.Jeff told me it was an As Seen on TV product (but the first that actually works) and I should give it a try. I am really happy with it. It’s expensive for such a tiny bottle, but all you need is a minuscule amount to get the job done. So far its holding up well in the FL sun. I still haven’t used except on the front bushwhacker flare, but I expect it to be just as impressive. The true test will be when summer rolls around.

Thank you Mjeff87 for telling me about the black trim restoring product . I have used the Rust-oleum wipe new on the front bushwhacker flares and it is some amazing stuff. Before -> After -> Oh yeah! Three weeks in the Florida sun and they still look great . Definitely something to invest in if you have some fading trim.

Lol. Never thought about that being my Xbox gamer tag

Awesome guys! I can paint the maroon panel gray if stroker doesn’t have one. Let me know how much you guys are asking for these. Thank you

I am hoping someone has, or has seen these things to pick up for me. I really need a nice functioning drivers side vent window. My is free swinging and I need to replace it before I get the Jeep windows tinted. I have not been able to locate these in any of the junkyards. I don’t know what exactly what they are called, but I will add pictures. And the power seat controller -> I am not sure if they are side specific, but I need the drivers side controller if they are. I hope some will know where to get these - thanks

😂 I am going to use that one!

Not bad for $20. I got an alert on a Sunday about a new Cherokee had just entered the junk yard. It looked like I should pass on going to look at it because I couldn’t see anything on it worth Snagging. It did have a roof rack, but I am making my own. I did realize later that I could use the mounting brackets on the rack I am making. I was not able to make it there for another week. I was pretty sure it would be gone by then, but I went anyways. Talk to the guy at the counter about how much for the rack? He said $20, so I was now hoping it was still there and it was -> I could not get the clamps off the crossbars and the crossbars off the rails. I did not want to leave this behind and they were closing soon. Ended up taking a hammer and hitting the crossbars off the rails. I got it off and hoped I would not be charged for them. I get up to the counter as they are locking the doors . Guy marks it with the paint pen and says $50. No no no, I was told by that gentleman there that it was twenty. Confirmed it and I went home happy. Not sure the counter guy was happy. I have no idea who makes this, but it Is welded construction. The more I Look at it; the more I really like it! Put a coat of Rustoleum semi-gloss black and immediately put it on. When I brought her home -> Then a few after shots ->

Lol, I was also setting up my AOL account . Everything related to my name was taken, so I had to be creative. Decided on Richard backwards and the production number on my Jeep Jamboree CJ7.

That is a nice rig for sure!

Anybody have an idea of what the real cost of everything needed to put this motor in the MJ? Any good write ups on this that you could direct me too? Just started thinking about this ->

I get it! Never would have thought of doing it that way

Thank you jdog. OK Jeff, how do you do it! Channel locks and a hammer? I was beating mine out with a mallet and about 3 inches of swing 😆. Getting them in was a piece of cake with the mallet and Phillips.

Nope. Only have one picture of the Scrambler on it. I should probably do a build-up thread on it after I am done with the XJ. Here is the 8 ->

Let me see what f I have one on my phone. I know I have a picture of my CJ8 on it. Let me look for both.

I did not notice that lol. My garage is destroyed because they needed the space at work. Now I have all my Jeep stuff packed in there. That is my 82 CJ7 buried in MJ parts

Even though I have two rear view mirrors (one new) that are made for the 91 and up, I still hope to be able to find one that fits the 90 and down MJ/XJ. They have an unsalvageable 88 MJ at the LKQ, but it had the right rear view mirror! Paid $4 - it’s a steal for a part nobody has. The new one on right is a bit larger than the 88 on the left -> The difference in the mounts of the mirrors. 88 -> The new style-> Polished up the mirror and got it in pretty good shape. Then I just detailed it a bit -> Got it hooked it up and it’s a perfect fit

That is looking tuff! Saw a lifted one on larger tires but could not stop to get a picture. I will when I see it again. I looked nice too.

I somehow thought this was my post. Sorry, deleted it.

My doors do not stay open and they are always hitting me in the back while loading groceries, or the munchkin. I have been putting off fixing this for a long time, because I did not want to take the door apart again and I was worried about it not working. I went to the local LKQ some time back and bought 2 door checks. I got them off a 94 four door XJ. I hoped that I could rebuild mine using the mechanisms off the Jeep. I grabbed the two rear checks, because 1 they looked the same as the fronts. And 2 I thought the would be in better condition do to how little they get used compared to the front door checks -> I started by takin off the two 10mm nuts on the bolts coming through the door. The mechanism inside will now be able to be removed as soon as the pin is remove on the body side of the check arm.Got the pins out of the doors with a mallet-> I was trying to figure out the way to get the arms in and out of the assembly. I unfortunately spent a long time trying to line up roll pin with the arm and spacer . The light came on and it took me not much more than a minute to get 4 door arms out and the 2 door arms in. A teachable moment - grab the bracket with a vice grip and use a screwdriver to open up the assembly -> The arms on the 4 door arms are longer and have only one stop position; the 2 door has two stops on the arm -> You can see the difference here (2 door top) -> Completed -> All I had to do now was grease the assemblies up -> Got them installed last night and am kicking myself for not doing this sooner. Slipped them in through the speaker hole and bolted them down the nuts with the 10mm socket. Got the arm pin in with a really long Phillips screwdriver and a hammer just lightly tapping it in. So the rebuild works and it is super easy to do. Good Idea for the MJ too. It works perfectly now, but It’s hard not to flinch like a battered wife anticipating the door to come smashing back into me after swinging it open. It does make some noise, but once the grease gets all worked in I expect it to be quieter. HTH

You got it.

Heck ya! Steven and the Seagulls.Those guys are great 👍🏻. Never heard of Hayseed DixIe. I like it.

Ahh, a U nut . Well, I got these free. I will have to get these when they start to become worn out.
