  1. I've got a nice set of two door xj grey seats with the bolsters in my basement waiting to go in my other mj as soon as I find another set of brackets .
  2. Yeah, years ago it took me a couple tries to get it right . The nice part is when you switch to the bolts instead of the rivets you can just change the brackets out in half the time.
  3. Drill out the second picture . I replaced the rivets with grade 8 1/4 bolts and nuts . Then you can replace the bucket brackets with the bench brackets .
  4. I will find out where it was sold but he might not tell me who he sold it to . I'm 25 minutes away from daveys and bought one of my trucks from him .
  5. Zj = grand Cherokee 93-98 Xj = 84 - 01 Cherokee Yj 87-95 wrangler Mj = 86-92 Comanche There a quite a few more but you get the drift of what there used for , like an abbreviation .
  6. You need to get paint stripper for plastic . It's available at your local parts store. If you use normal stripper it might damage the flare .
  7. Thanks Alexia . I was going insane trying to find that hole. How did it catch on fire? if you don't mind me asking
  8. I was just under my truck and seen nothing . I'm thinking maybe because it was a stick truck initially it doesn't have the shifter cable hole .
  9. Pm sent
  10. Last fall I pulled the 4.0 , 4x4 ,auto driveline out of a 95 xj to go in my 89 mj that was a 2.5 2wd 5spd . I'm currently putting the motor , trans , and t case in and can't remember or see where the trans shift cable goes through the firewall . Anyone have a picture showing where it's located or where to drill a hole ? Thanks in advance .
  11. ^^ that . Except for the second part , the flexplate has the outer ring making it not possible to flip around . When installing the tc in the trans, rotate the tc until it "clicks" 3 times into the trans .
  12. If you end up switching to the newer nipple be sure that you explain to any oil change place or repair shop that you need the newer filter . There just going to "assume" that it's a stock filter for the 88 .
  13. I had my ds shortened that came out of my 86 2wd Lb when I converted it to a 95 xj driveline . I had a local ds place shorten it and when he did he took all the rubber out and I've put 75k miles on the truck with no incident . Dando if you need a ds let me know . I have spares .
  14. I buy the mopar 5012968a filters for my 88 mj . Thats if you want to stick with mopar filters .
  15. It's sounding like team cherokee and omix ada are competing to see who is the worse company . Sorry to hear though .
  16. I'd guess vette or Superbird or daytona
  17. I know they put something (like rubber) in the ds to keep it from vibrating . Eventually the rubber would come loose and unbalance the shaft.
  18. The problem could have occured due to you changing to a bigger size tire . The stabilizer could have been strong enough the accommodate the 215s but not the 235s . Do you see any signs of it leaking? And if you have steel rims jack the truck up and spin the tires to make sure the shop didn't bend a rim .
  19. How is your steering stabilizer ? That can make it seem like the tires are out of balance . What tire size did you have before?
  20. I replaced a couple broken spring leafs on one of my Mjs. My main leafs were good and it cost me $90 in parts ( 2 leafs , quick clips , locating bolt , and u bolts .) It took me about 1 1/2 hours to change both sides . You don't need any real specialty tools to do it either .
  21. Mine has the measurements , yours should too
  22. Akula just reminded me when he said fsm I have a 90 fsm and can send you pics or fax you the frame spec page(s)
  23. When I worked at my local body shop on many occasions the measurements were not always accurate. I can call my old boss and see if he'll give me the measurements for you . Another way that we also did it was to bolt all of the parts on and check to make sure it all was lined up and then weld everything in place . I'll let you know asap .
