Yeah i want those and the A pillar ones as well. are those interchangeable with cherokee ones? Ive got my hands on a 2000 cherokee and was thinking of switching the interiors over...That being said i have a tan interior now which is in fantastic shape and seeing the prices of those panels my brain is saying "Hell yeah grab those things and lets get wrenching!!" but then my wallet is saying "Remember we are trying to do this on a budget..." If the stinkin JY would stay open longer i would have more time to go through the yard and try to find a MJ. I find that alot of them have tan/burgandy interiors. Ive never tried to use the XJ a pillars , I don't know . If you are planning on installing a 2000 Cherokee interior the color will be Agate , not grey . You can paint your interior pillar panels as an option , are you doing the complete conversion ?

I'd say the fuel pump or the rubber hose inside the tank is bad. Airtex pumps are junk , I'm surprised it lasted 6 years , get yourself a Bosch 69302 pump and you'll be good . The hose may be dry rotted ( why you're losing pressure) .Before you do all that make sure the ground behind the drivers side tail light has a nice clean connection .

Transmission
Strokermjcomanche replied to ftpiercecracker1's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I've got a nv3550 in my MJ and It shifts fine . If you get one more than likely it will be from a TJ and I would recommend clocking the tcase to the XJ/MJ position so the 4wd linkage bolts up correctly . The TJ shifter will work but it hits the console a bit because of the offset in the shifter base ( which can be fixed with a Nv3550 XJ shifter or a Hurst shifter ) . Everything else is straightforward ... -
"Mirror Panel" Tweeters
Strokermjcomanche replied to Minuit's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I tried to mount them before , they didn't fit on the older doors . How about the factory Jensen tweeters? -

Do you need just the knob at the end or all that you have pictured? -

Those are rivets , you need to drill the heads off . -
Talked to my insurance company and they are waiting on the police report to see if the lady that actually owns the explorer has insurance . If she has insurance they'll go after her , if no insurance my uninsured will cover it with no raising of my rates . Of course no legal action will happen to the person that was driving ........ But it's better than nothing .

Cut the old perches off the 8.25 and weld the new perches on , the mopar perches are cheap( under $20 ) and work well . Are you planning any lift ? If not the pinion angle shouldn't have to be changed , you can buy magnetic angle finders for cheap and copy your angle ( and spring perch width ) off of your old axle , weld the perches on and you're good to go . If the pinion length is the same the driveshaft will bolt right in , use the Mj emergency brake cables also . If you keep the height sensing valve , flipping and reversing the bracket mounted on the diff cover will work .

Thanks John . I hope you're right bout the 20 something year old kid that was driving , but he has no insurance , no liscense , didn't use a turn signal , was on the phone ( distracted ) , ran red lights and blew through no turn on reds running away . I doubt there's any hope for him ... I just want him to pay for damages done to my vehicle which won't happen . I think it's funny how when I was on unemployment, and when my health insurance ran out, that I was penalized for not having health insurance but nothing will happen to him because he didn't have car insurance and he will continue to drive uninsured and with no liscense .

Thanks Don . He had three people hit and skip on him in the past , plus he was a Veteran with good morals .

He's lucky it wasn't an Mj , thanks .

Well I woke up and figured I'd get some breakfast from dunkin donuts today , turned out to be a bad decision . I was driving my 99XJ in the right lane of a 4 lane road and there was a green Ford explorer (liscense # gyy5233 ) in the left lane heading the same direction I was , he decided to make a quick turn into my lane striking the left front of my jeep . The guy never stopped until I caught up to him motioning for him to pull over , we both got out and he asked if I was ok ( he knew he hit me ) i said I was fine . He said we're all ok then right ? I said no we are going to have a report made . I got back in my vehicle to call the police and a white equinox pulled up next to me asking if I was ok and that he seen what had happened . As I told him I was calling the cops and everything was ok the guy in the explorer sped off and I gave him chase , I called 911 and explained what happened , 911 said that the cops were in route and if I had the plate number to just let him go so I did . I gave the operator the last direction he was headed and returned back to the scene of the accident to meet the cop for a report and so did the eye witness . They know the adress of the explorer and sent a cruiser over and the ford wasn't there , I was told by the description I gave of the driver that he doesn't have insurance , and a suspended liscense . Time to call my insurance company .. This sucks

This one ? https://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/cto/5976693310.html Sounds like a better truck than the one you originally were looking at . If the floors and such are in good shape go for it , you may be able to talk him down too .

I'm from eastern Ohio as well , where do you live? I've had many Mjs that have lived their life in Ohios rust area , sounds like it's not worth the $2500 to me . The frame is going to continue to go in other areas and you'll be polishing a turd , I learned my lesson after 5 rusted out trucks , I currently have 2 rust free Mjs and one somewhat clean one I use as a truck . The last truck I purchased from Colorado through a member on here was $900 plus shipping but needed some work , it will last me a long time once completed .

Should be the plug to the o2 sensor . But as Don said ....

Dakota parts on Comanche?
Strokermjcomanche replied to GeorgiaJeeper93's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
ax15 can bolt in but have to use your original bellhousing. Dakota bell housings won't work http://comancheclub.com/topic/50094-ax-15-swap-question/?fromsearch=1 -
Dakota parts on Comanche?
Strokermjcomanche replied to GeorgiaJeeper93's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I would like to correct myself . If you happen to have a 2.5 / 5 speed combo , the ax15 trans happened to be bolted behind that for some of the years and the bell housing is desirable -
Dakota parts on Comanche?
Strokermjcomanche replied to GeorgiaJeeper93's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Nothing is going to bolt right on . You'd have to modify parts to work , like the gas tank and tail lights . The antenna and parking brake won't work -
