  1. have you added a ground to the fan wiring?
  2. fresh off the drawing board... of a 6 year old... kidding aside, I do hope there's a bit more bodywork and some paint in its future.
  3. the pic was sent out to newspapers in part of the early ad campaign. somehow I doubt they are the deer whistles you buy at the gas station. my guess is headlight sprayers. I've seen them on other european cars. (sometimes with tiny wipers too!)
  4. and I mean super-duper stock. Today's example of why originality is kinda nice is that someone asked me where the taillight harness is supposed to run on its way to the back and I can just walk out to my truck and snap a couple photos for him. now I just need to collect a bone-stock example of each and every possible model and drivetrain combination and I'll be all set.

    89 MJ All Original

    research is your greatest ally. keep reading. Make sure you can recognize the difference between the 35 (has an oval cover) and 44 (more of a stop sign shape). The link in my sig has a ton of info, with Cruiser's MJ tips near the top. also this thread:
  6. both ways will look great. If I went for contrast it'd probably be boring ol' black.
  7. painting to match or painting to contrast?
  8. the little black things. headlight sprayers? It's an old image of a european MJ.
  9. that's a good choice I really like mine!
  10. yup, that's my perfect house right there. big garage with a tiny apartment upstairs.
  11. just stole it for the CC fb page main image. such a sharp looking rig!
  12. hoo boy, that truck is looking fantastic! I just might have to work on getting the guts to paint my topper.
  13. the link in my sog has threads about the various transmission swaps. the usual hiccup is the pilot bushing but you just need to know which to get.

    Whats in my garage

    still love that manifold
  15. that makes sense. I've pulled a couple beds now and it's pretty easy, so I feel I should mention it just in case "perceived difficulty" was the reason.
  16. that should make a marked improvement in drive-ability
  17. are you going to paint the topper?
  18. ouch. yeah, as much as these engines have an insane reliability reputation, bad things can still happen to 30 year old parts.
  19. are you pulling the bed for paint?
  20. need more pics of said details
  21. there's no end to the work that a 30 year old truck needs.
  22. so what's up with the engine? what turned out to be wrong?
