  1. spotted this beauty on the way home. unfortunately his turn light went first and I wasn't able to get any closer
  2. finally got new tires for the Cruiser. went with a 225/50 over the factory 205/55. also running 1" spacers.
  3. either yourself or if you have someone you know/trust that's got skills. the script that is supposed to auto-shrinking the images isn't doing its job and we need someone to look into it. the fullsize images are eating up more and more space that is upping our monthly bill. there are some other things that need to be addressed, but this is the most pressing. @Big_Mark is on point for this since he knows way more than I about the coding aspect.
  4. my pop's 83 Z-28 has a hitch too. iirc, we used it exactly twice to pull a small trailer when we went camping. after that we got a minivan for camping trips. (also, I seem to have accidentally edited your post instead of starting a new one and ended up deleting the content before I caught my mistake terribly sorry 'bout that. not nearly enough sleep last night )
  5. oh my!!!
  6. my new phone did not get bigger. talk-to-text is a life saver

    apparently I missed a couple? you don't have leather seats and you don't have a 750amp battery. when the code explanation is wrong, it's usually very wrong. usually it applies to a much newer chrysler product.
  8. @JMO413 does the computer come up with a build sheet now?
  9. if anyone is looking for them: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_dkr=1&iconV2Request=true&_blrs=recall_filtering&_ssn=nigel1896&_oac=1&_nkw=jeep nos seat

    I went through and edited out the common code errors (such as you don't have a powdercoated bumper or rack and pinion steering)
  11. what's the length difference between the autos and a manual?

    are you unable to get into the Ollie account?
  15. yup, they are indeed filled with magic no more jumper cables!!!
  16. that was my thought. the paint codes in the vin printout are not usually correct (mainly because chrysler keeps reusing codes for newer colors) and repainting a truck twice is a definite possibility. have you removed a door panel yet?
  17. huh. I tried both and got nowhere. weird.
  18. any idea what it was?
  19. oh, they are notorious for failing and glitchy electronics. (not that any company in the 70s had a reputation for rock solid electronics )

    front bumper might be the rare dealership tube bumper option? rims look like TJ era.
  21. just don't forget that the 87-90 clusters will work in your truck with the speedo hookup change.
  22. that's the thing, ownership hadn't changed yet. introduction of the 4.0 was the big change for 87. far as I can tell, chrysler branded parts didn't arrive until 89. I realize my evidence is few and far between, but it would appear they definitely upgraded the cluster board in 87. can't imagine it was due to faults though, as the 86 boards would still be like-new. guess it was a lucky improvement.
  23. I've got plenty of clusters, 2 are full ones from 84-86 and they are the ONLY clusters in my stash that have board problems. something changed in 87.
