  1. I'm sure it'll look weird at first simply because it's a change, but it's common now a days for manufacturers to black out the B and/or C pillars.
  2. what about painting them black as a contrast color?
  3. paint code is on the little metal plate in the engine bay up in the corner by the driver. and no, we've not yet found any official breakdowns of paints or trim packages or literally anything. even the annual total build numbers don't fully make sense.
  4. yeah, having your own personal junkyard is pretty convenient sometimes
  5. the yellow things are tubes. the fins simply conduct heat away from the tubes. the fins don't have to be all perfect.
  6. I'm still envious every time I see engine swaps in rigs that can remove the fenderwells. it's like cheating. how's the heat working in the barn?
  7. yup, that's just part of the structure.
  8. do you need the rubber mount? or the metal bracket that holds it to the frame? I've got a set of MJ 2.8 brackets in that empty shell of a truck.

    Tailgate

    they are repairable. just drill out a few spotwelds and they come apart.
  10. excellent efforts saving that truck. (I flipped your pics for you it's a weird glitch in how different devices save the orientation of the photo. I've found that if I rotate it in my laptop, then rotate back, it changes that code and then appears correct each time. phones are a bit different though.)
  11. a single 8" in the cab was enough to melt the kidneys of the passenger in front of it. buy quality and feed it all the power it can handle and you'll be fine with less. top end kenwood 5.25s components with separate tweeters, 10 band equalizer, and a Solo Baric 8" (I don't remember what the amps were). it was an incredible mix in that tiny cab.
  12. well that's just weird. it's not the first picture in the thread and not the latest. why did the software pick that particular one?
  13. but now it's done. forever.
  14. did you have the battery checked out?
  15. good for more than carrots
  16. this one is looking pretty sad and it's doubtful I can get it back into place and guarantee a good seal. anyone found a good replacement? I don't really want to have to yank a bunch of hvacs looking for another in decent shape.
  17. gotta be patient. @eaglescout526
  18. well that sucks. but that seems like a frustrated emotional response when a clear and level head is needed. maybe run a compression test before you literally throw the truck away. what's the warranty on the engine?
  19. If my main leafs were in good shape, I'd keep them and throw some flatter junkyard leafpacks underneath and go SOA. full packs too (with the eyes cut off) as I'm a big proponent of fully supporting that main leaf.
  20. as someone from detroit, the very concept of football became dead to me many, many years ago. although that 0-16 season was pretty fun.

    Bench seat

    just be sure to get one with headrests. before 1990 Jeep apparently felt you needed to pay more for the buckets in order to protect your neck.
  22. it's not any different than wiring a relay. lighting relay kits are all over ebay and amazon. look up a relay diagram and then extend the activate wires to your switch and the power transfer wires to the wires at the fuel resistor.
