I saw his post on FB and he was insisting that photo is of the test phase. I've not yet seen a pic of a finished product.

the little swing arm should be just above the 3oclock position when viewed from the rear bumper.

if you want old-school looks with bluetooth, Minuit is adding AUX ports to the old radios and then you just need to add a bluetooth dongle to it and BAM you've got it all. I'm rockin' a '92 XJ unit in my '06 Liberty. note the charging cable for my phone. since I needed to add in a USB charger in the dash for the dongle I choose, I got a double-outlet and now I can charge while I rock out.

I think you got it right. shows 1 of 11 in the corner. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5xexv-dMrM&list=PL4sfVCWR8nGJ0iZTaheuqSoZ2JC16JEBp one of the best movies of all time right there

I can smell that through my screen.

radiator and hoses would be on my list. maybe even the water pump too since they are pretty cheap.

I get roughly 3.25"x6.5" inner dimensions (that's where my comanche trailer is cut so I can see the cross section).

can't imagine it'd be much different than any other Chevy v8. Novak should have some data on it. you sure there's not one in the Epic Tech forum? I swear I've heard of someone on CC swapping one in.

yup. looks like a new clutch line is in your future. as it turns out you don't actually need the clutch pedal to drive. turn off truck, put it in first, crank the engine and the starter will pull the truck forward and it'll fire up and go. be prepared for it to fire and go. then you just need to match rpms to shift. the biggest hassle is having to turn the truck back off at a stop light to repeat the procedure when the green flashes. drove my '90 home from Ohio this way. the guy I just bought it from said it had a leak but would go all week before needing to top off. it of course lasted about 10 miles.

how's the bed? any rust?

97+ XJ mirrors bolt in and are bigger. though they may interfere slightly with the window trim in the corner.

daaaaaaaaamn... I bet that looks good in the sunshine

possibly the insane illegality of it all. Literally everything they rent is a better tow vehicle than a 30 year old MJ.

the 30 ft Uhaul truck can't tow it, but your comanche can? this seems like a very poor idea.

renting Uhaul vans is way cheaper than hospital bills.

if you want to get an SYE, those are way stronger but way more of a job since you need to take apart the t-case to install it. not sure what level of project you're looking for. oh, and now's a great time to upgrade the rear axle's ujoint straps to the little U-bolts. way better

the rear MJ shaft is like a foot longer than an XJ shaft. -double check your rear pinion angle (losing a shaft is quite rare and leads me to think something else might be wrong) -measure for a new shaft using the method on Tom's site -buy new shaft -wait patently -install new shaft -go have fun. I can't seem to find an image of it, but sealing the rear of the t-case is easy. just wrap a few 8" lengths over the end to seal it, then wrap the roll around and around to keep it all there.

It just adds to the MJ's unique smells and natural charm

those would be emblems, not decals.

both the dana 44 and the posi were separate options no matter which MJ you ordered.

oh, and I found my line output converter so tomorrow I also hope to get some thump in the truck by installing my amp and subwoofer

are you familiar with how to cut out the rockers/corners in one piece?

Tom Woods makes good stuff copious amounts of duct tape on the tailshaft to hold the oil in should be enough to get you home.

yeah, that was a real beauty. bummer. do you still have the VIN around so we can add her to the registry? now that you have enough posts I split the ad off of this thread and moved it into the classifieds for ya.
