  1. Ordered one from NAPA will see how that goes.
  2. Not mine. I know there is a thread for marketplace stuff, but these are so rare if it is an OEM I thought it deserved its own post. https://www.facebook.com/groups/111780159177030/permalink/1330947790593588/?sale_post_id=1330947790593588
  3. Market Place post OEM Roll Bar https://www.facebook.com/groups/111780159177030/permalink/1330947790593588/?sale_post_id=1330947790593588
  4. PB is a life saver. I plan out my work on the truck and soak any bolt or nut I plan to remove at least twice before moving on. On suspension and under carriage stuff I start shooting them a week or so before trying to take them apart.
  5. Brown Santa came again a couple of days ago. I know it’s not the best quality but for a daily driver it will do. 4.5 Rough Country with lower arms.
  6. Completed @cruiser54#6 today, getting closer to having a driver. IMG_3707.MOV
  7. I recently replaced the CPS with one from rock auto. Also completed @cruiser54 Sensor ground fix #6 today.
  8. I haven’t looked at the guts of the car but it’s there. I am sure it’s an old one but probably not OEM unless it’s been gutted. Exhaust is on the list of things to do. Current muffler is beat up to say the least (has dents in it). I have a new muffler and tail pipe ready to put on soon.
  9. So after a few more of @cruiser54s tips it seems I’ve got the idle better. She still wants to backfire and sputter if throttle is opened fast while parked, but that goes away after a moment or two and she revs fine to full throttle. Driving is a different story doesn’t want to accelerate at all under a load. Engine revs stay low and there is some sputtering and occasional backfire. I tried to recalibrate the new TPS from rock auto with no luck. Went back to the old TPS that came with the truck. It doesn’t want to calibrate either but it does at least show a reading. My base was 4.56 which means the out pit should be 3.78 all I can get out of the current TPS is 0.10. Ordered a Mopar TPS we shall see if that helps. IMG_3707.MOV
  10. Nice walk down Memory Lane thanks again @Minuit!
  11. Yep that’s the one. Thanks!
  12. Was looking to see if I could find old post/my build from back in 2014. Also don’t see the truck listed in the registry as a post from me.
  13. That’s perfect for what I am looking for. I am putting a bench seat in this truck so this one will be good.
  14. That would be great.
  15. Changing a 4x4 Auto floor shift to bench seat and need a mini console. Any color is fine as it will be reconditioned and painted with SEM. Also looking for a intact right rear fender flare. Color not important.
  16. Thanks for posting this, besides my idle problem and some slight backfiring I am having a similar problem. Lose power going forward after a few minutes. Going to try the drain/fill/drain/fill and so on after I change out the messed up trans cooler lines next week. Fingers crossed your problem is fixed and mine can be.
  17. Made a stumbling/popping and slight back firing trip around the block yesterday. Not a fun drive, but progress. She also got a fresh oil filter and oil along with a new coolant pressure tank and some new antifreeze. Got the new windshield washer motor in and tank reinstalled. We now have windshield washer that works. Found the wiper motor is only mounted with one bolt and rubbing against the wiper arms. Still need to figure out why wipers are super slow. Things are coming together slowly. Transmission still isn’t shifting correctly and doesn’t seem to want to go forward. Seems to be okay in reverse. 4x4 indicator light on dash has randomly started to illuminate when trans is in park and neutral. ? No clue what has caused that. Also need to figure out why gauge cluster lights refuse to illuminate. Placed an order with @NickInTimeFilms for the REM and ordered some new transmission lines to replace the cobbled together one currently on the truck.
  18. Fuel system is all new except for rail and lines. New fuel pressure regulator, fuel line clip/connector, fuel pump and filter. I just repaired the splice for the fuel pump relay. Truck doesn’t smoke and has a fresh oil change.
  19. So I’ve got Little Blue (87 4x4 4.0 auto) to run. Having some issue though. Truck idles fair, but does stumble (drop) occasionally. It has a new CPS, MAP, IAC and TPS. Upgraded 746 injectors and new plugs. Plug wires and distributor look fairly new also. When running it has good power in reverse, in forward gears it does not seem to have much power but will move. I ventured around the block today. Started out moving pretty good, then about 1/2 mile in it stumbled and seemed to lose power. Engine was stumbling and had some backfiring, limped it around the block about 10-15 mph after a couple of stalls. Engine starts right up after a stall. What are y’all’s thoughts?
  20. Humm... May see you there. Wife and I usually try to make a Bryson, NC trip once a year and these dates are right after her birthday. We could take both the JK and MJ. We shall see...
  21. Found my brake light problem. Looks like I must have bumped the old connectors when working under the dash. Upper right (after pic posted) corner of pic, PO did some junk wiring and it failed.
  22. @Ωhm thank you again for all the help!
  23. With the help of the good folks here I found the problem. non-existing splice on the wiring harness D1_5 power supply. Now to get her running better and figure out brakes and transmission issues. IMG_3691.MOV
  24. She started right up, not a steady idle but the splice was the fuel pump/pressure issue. Idles up then almost dies, but comes back to life. IMG_3691.MOV
