WJ lower control arm question(s)
Strokermjcomanche replied to Strokermjcomanche's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
That was one of write ups I had seen . Like you said , I think it's a combination of the height and lack of drop brackets . -
First ,here's some background info : 1988 with OME 2934 lift coils , stock UCA's , Dana 30 with 31x10.50x15 tires with stock gambler wheels . I'm in the process of installing my dana 30 4:10 axle along with new WJ LCA's , I've already cut the sleeves to the proper width and attempted to install the LCA's with the oval bushing on the frame side and the round at the axle side . So here's where the problem starts , the top of the control arm is hitting the axle housing on both the shock bracket and the bracket that is directly below that, where the bolt that holds the LCA on goes through . It's not like it's barely touching either , I'm to the point where the truck is now starting to lift off of the jack stands and I think even if I get the bolt in the axle side of the LCA that I will get very little travel before they make contact . So what course should I take ? Notch the LCA for more clearance and weld it back together . Use drop brackets to make the control arm sit more level . I know people in the past have said to cut the axle bracket , but with the lift I don't see that being enough clearance and weakening the strength of the brackets too . Other options / opinions / thoughts? It's too dark to take pics right now , but I can tomorrow if it helps you to see what's going on . Thanks in advance

As being the only other person on this forum that personally has seen your truck , I would leave them on . The reasons above are good enough to leave them alone . Here's a close up picture of the paint/stripes .... -

Have you considered downloading or buying a FSM ? There is a lot of good info that will help with some of the problems you've recently posted about . Don't think of me saying this because no one wants to help ( because that's why this forum is here ) , just that it's another great source . -
replaced water pump, now overheating ?
Strokermjcomanche replied to thejum57's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Make sure you don't have an air pocket . Then make sure the water pump is the correct rotation and the belt is routed properly -

It's a stalk , not a stick . Simply grab the chrome part and pull it out in the direction of the drivers door -

Thanks for the lead .I scrolled through several pages and found the rest of the listings for all the seatbelt parts I was asking for , kinda . I should have mentioned I had bucket seats and need the stiff receivers that stand on their own , my fault . I may get the passenger seat belt if nothing else pops up , unless you think he'd come down a decent amount on the prices ( I think that's what you meant on your second post ) . Thanks again for the lead .

I'll take them if the teeth are in good shape , pm me with price please . Thanks Matt

Looking for a black passenger side seatbelt ( retractable / B pillar side . ) Possibly the receivers as well . Black full console lid The clips that hold the interior trim panel that is below the back glass and above the rear carpeted panel , Id like at least ten of them . I know could make something work , but I want the original clips either good shape or new . Thanks in advance .

Front bumper-mounted lights
Strokermjcomanche replied to RustyRodder's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Why not make a bracket that uses the factory bumper holes and extends out so you can fit your KCs ? Unless you like the above more.. -

Floor board treatment recommendations?
Strokermjcomanche replied to Skorpyo's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Looks solid .I'd prime and paint with good products , not spray cans . I see it's 2wd ,so you won't be driving it in the winter / bad weather? Also throw away the jute padding and the white insulation bags that retain any water that makes it through the carpet and replace with lizard skin / dynamat etc .
