random thing I found while testing clocks for sale. only have the body side and I have no idea where it came from. Sentinel? 7 seems like a lot of wires for just a clock. or maybe did something else besides Jeep clocks also use the same plug? could be something I got from Jim.

inventing takes time

buy the whole kit

anyone know the year change for the 2 lengths?

he hasn't been on since June and isn't responding to the email addy I have.

photos of the bellhousing might help.

love those classic graphics if the peugeot is currently working fine, I'd probably keep it. be nice to it and it'll be nice to you. you'll definitely need to track down an 87-90 gauge cluster. 91+ went to a completely different system. If you can't find one locally I have a couple for sale.

any day I walk away with a new tailgate is a great day

Key Parts has recently brought out replacement bed patch panels, rockers, floors and other goodies for our trucks.

interesting! I've never given any thought to that particular location of engagement. though my first thought is slapping a bunch of grease on the pilot shaft, assembling/disassembling everything and seeing if the measurements match where you see the grease line move. but then I'm always leery of my own measurements.

how well it was cared for means the most. the fact that it runs/drives well and has working AC is a good indicator. our trucks rot from the inside out though, so any holes you see on the outside are likely far worse in the inside.

you bet

couple towels will keep them quiet. always remember your towel.

uh oh! the old Lions seem to have snuck onto the field

brand new window?

love the rocker guards beefy! maybe time for a rear bumper and corner guards?

those are some pretty sweet goodies!

that was quite a flip! almost seemed effortless and easily repeatable.

lockers are like having super powers

turkey day! I think my Bro-in-law is air-frying this year. after a day of brine-soak of course. will find out this afternoon. got the xmas tree down from the attic because I was up there anyway, but I'll wait to decorate until later. and yes, I only set up 1/4 of a tree each year. and the Lions are doing pretty good this year so maybe they will make it an entertaining game.

and a few days later we have frost warnings. and in a few days we'll be back to shorts.

another con that applies to rusty rigs is that the weld between the sheetmetal and tube tends to rust, weaken and split apart after a while, especially if the backside of the weld inside the Jeep isn't painted or otherwise treated. not a deal breaker, but important to keep an eye on. I almost went this way with my 88 but decided to a more traditional rocker guard welded to the frame after realizing I had very little clean metal to weld to in the rocker area.

in my opinion the light is completely irrelevant since there's a giant handle next to my knee that tells me what I'm shifted into. just be sure you don't have any vacuum leaks and you're good to go.

I replaced that rubber cone plug with a generic plug/grommet and haven't had any leaks since.

what a weird year to change a plug.
