  1. these reasons are why it's important to own multiple MJs. I certainly wouldn't want my only MJ to be a show queen.
  2. I replaced all of my rivets with reusable ones. no regrets. but I've taken my stuff apart more times than I can count now. on the subject of little trim fasteners, where has this tool been my whole life!? It's in my toolbag now for sure.
  3. ooooo, brand new super old tires....

    car-part.com has pics of each rim for each year.

    I think these are the ones you're thinking of
  6. I'm assuming it's this one:
  7. finally! something to show me how to shift my Jeep into 4wd!

    what year? they look aftermarket to me.

    it is correct according to the my build-sheet codes

    tinted windows back in the day is not quite what we think of in more modern times. the code is correct though, and not recycled. found it on the back of my build sheet to verify
  11. the frame caps are probably overrated anyway! I've "disassembled" plenty of the front ends, but I don't know if I've ever reinstalled one. sounds like a pain! I can be an audiophile when I want to (and have the budget to support it). I do enjoy quality in my tunes. but I'm broke and trying to do this on a budget of 0 dollars using 20 year old parts I have lying around (because they just weren't worth enough to sell at the moving sale). trust me, there are much better ways to do what I'm doing
  12. I want to find one for the eventual dash assembly I'm going to hang on the wall closest I'll probably ever get is I have a washer bottle with the level sensor in it.
  13. minor victory! I swapped to the other channel in the line converter and things have improved!
  14. minor setback. I wired up the amp and subwoofer and I'm getting a crackling noise along with the music. also the sound coming out of the speaker is quieter than I'd like. I think I might have to throw money on a new amp with built-in line converter and crossover. all my stuff is 20 years old and was super cheap when new. (except for the woofer. that cost me a pretty penny back in the day) I haven't given up quite yet. still have some thoughts to pursue...
  15. there are directions for testing the various sensors in the link in my signature
  16. very much a custom built piece
  17. they are supposed to have the side decals. adding the VIN to the registry will clear that up.
  18. also all Chiefs were shortbeds though replica decals could always be added later
  19. wait, what are the safety chains hooked to?
  20. 31s on wrangler 8" rims and stock 4x4 height. oh and WJ lower arms to cure the rub
  21. I've only experienced sticky TBs in need of lube or broken springs. the idea of winding one just hasn't crossed my mind. but I'll file that away for later.

    Wasps....ugh

    I need the confirmed kills. can't risk the burrowing buggers finding a way out.

    a days harvest. built a trap from a cookie container with a funnel made of a 2-liter bottle and stuck the assembly above the hole (can't get it flush with the ground because there's a chunk of metal sticking up in the way). a good harvest so far. last time took days and days to get them all.
  24. I'm not sure I remember an MT up for sale lately. usually it's "I just bought this!" meaning the rest of us missed out on it. you can replicate it easy enough on any MJs though. It's just a suspension package. it won't be original of course, but it'll be close.
  25. XJs and MJs have different floor brackets but share sliders if they are the straight variety in the XJ (also came in curved and power).
