how old is the gas?

I did peek in each XJ I saw to check the radios. I'd never done that before. stupid unicorn CD player!!

how's the rust?

rear latch mechanism was the first thing I grabbed last time didn't think about the evic. that's a good idea! side note, the junkyard switch fixed my mirrors! guess I should grab another of those. and if I ever see a crd in the junkyards I'm stripping it clean!

yup, the computer controls the timing but can only accommodate a small amount of distributor misalignment or timing chain misalignment.

that sucks. at least you didn't drive all that way first.

it comes stronger

having an "MJ" almost seems too obvious but certainly doable. any other thoughts on it?

just get 4 pieces of 1x1 tubing about 7" (?) long and straddle then side-to-side between and on top of the 2 brackets. punch holes in the appropriate places and get longer bolts to join the seat bits to the floor brackets. done.

a 1" riser made from 1x1 tubing should be easy enough to do.

trying to find time to get out to pullapart again and this time focusing on the Liberty. She's a salt belt Jeep and I'm down south so I'm sure there are plenty of items that I can grab. this is what's on the list so far: ABS computer (last time it was in the shop they said the comp wouldn't talk to them) wheel sensors (in case it's not the comp) the rear window thingies that like to break (regulator guide?) skid plates front trans lines (mine are rusty enough to start leaking) blower resistor as well as a sunvisor for a ptCruiser and whatever is left of value on that beat up MJ.

that would sure be cool! especially combined with that factory longbed liner I saw for sale a bit ago.

that's just plain awesome. what a way to bring the old Jeep into the modern era.

I actually went the other way and put an old MJ radio in my Liberty. with a Minuit-built AUX jack so I can play tunes from my phone.

fingers crossed!!

fancy! what's it called?

nope. just needs to have a 23 spline input to match the output of the AX-15

this is a bit of an experiment for me since Matt's build is entirely a youtube thing, but here goes... introduction: bed removal:

does his quote include removing it from the truck?
