beat me to it! I bet it's like a v8 powered gocart

you can easily and safely try it with the peel-off sprays. just do it in light coats and stop when you're happy.

nice I still have mine too. I even hang it now and again (opened to my truck's month of course )

that worked, though the words are smooshed with the pics, or at least that's what I see on my screen.

excellent! The old wiring is notorious for issues. Vigilance is key! After I loss my brake lights due to corrosion in that connector, I made it a point to check them every day (it was my daily driver at the time).

yeah, bots are fascinating creatures. I almost want to trap it in a small glass container and see what it does next. our anti-bot software is near 100% with preventing them from ever getting this far.

I also installed the '02 center trim with the double outlets. unfortunately I didn't think to snip off a plug for that second outlet, so I only have one for now. I've also somehow misplaced the little hvac light bulbs I snagged, sooooo.... also shown is the black trim to the right of the steering wheel I got because it's fancier than the plain green that was there before .

old vs new. I can't figure out how to adapt the power tracks to the new seat so I'm just going to have it manual until more 2nd gen Libs show up in the yards. the lower right bracket is the weird spot. had to trim the pass seat, but the drivers seat squished the carpet just fine with no trimming required.

usually if someone says "it's not worth that much", it's because the price is being compared to other similar trucks. but it's the sad truth that you'll almost never get back what you put in.

yeah, hawaii will be there next year. this probably won't.

true. title changed.

I have a feeling that this is one of those tools that once you have it, you will find more and more excuses to use it.

yes, but which is more strange... the fact that someone thought we could diagnose a hacked up wire harness over the internet or that a 1 post member responded to a 1 post member from 2 years ago and included a weird embedded google maps link.

when you absolutely, positively have to attract all the attention. the 3rd axle is just a dummy axle. https://www.ebay.com/itm/273693188905?_trksid=p11021.c100851.m5053&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20170803121420%26meid%3D78bb2a4011394347b7625a00d4e6e0e1%26pid%3D100851%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D4%26b%3D1%26sd%3D183677194303%26itm%3D273693188905&ul_noapp=true

if it's not the bulbs themselves, my money is on the harness connector behind the drivers side rear tire.

do the front running lights work?

are your brake lights too bright? I know that several members have used the peel-away paint and hit them with some light coats just to take the edge off. or you can clean and polish them up and hit them with clearcoat. that's what I did to the ones on my trailer.

4.7L engine so I'm guessing it's an nv3500? should I try to get it? more importantly, will it bolt to my CRD? lol

good thing. nobody likes bedbugs

I've got the physical installation down (I think), but the wiring is going to be interesting. yours would be a bit easier though since you don't have the pass side pressure switch. I'll take more detailed pics of what I had to do in the morning. I intend to use the fold down option for sleeping. (also hauling long boards and such) I've tried sleeping in the back (I'm too tall) and tried sleeping in the front seat (that just plain sucks) so I really looking forward to having a plank from front to back so I can use it as a camper on trips.

is... that a... boxspring on top? did it come with the price? great buy either way!

can you feel the engine more than before?

of course it does! it's a 4.0! mine's been through a half-dozen calamities and it still fires up and scoots. Though it's been a couple years since I fired it up (not since the throttle body seized up). Soon as I'm done messing around with the KJ I'm going to install that replacement and see what happens.

that sucks

scored some KK front seats and 2 decent KJ black leather steering wheels today (found one wheel at one yard and then an even better wheel at the next and I just couldn't turn it down) oh, plus an 02 dash bezel with the dual cig lighters and some other random spare stuff. from what I read online the seats were an easy install. nope! I had to hack off a good portion of the front inner steel support to get the passenger seat to fit properly on the floor. and nothing I read mentioned the seat belts. the two Jeeps use a different thread on that bolt plus the old end doesn't fit well into the new seat. I didn't grab the seatbelts from the yard so I, um, made it fit. right about then I ran out of daylight so the rest will wait 'til tomorrow. and that's right, if you didn't know it already, the KK passenger seat folds forward plus they are comfy! the old seats had long ago lost any "squishyness" they may have had when new.
