best bet seems to be cutting the blockoff plates- Ive been looking at the same thing, only other options for rockers are the ones that replace the clock pod, or mount to the console.

Thanks! I seem to be missing most of that- i wonder why it wasnt leaking before this?

Hey all, I replaced my fuel pressure regulator and injectors recently. The FPR is leaking where the line comes in, pictured. I did rob the O-ring from the original, as there was not one in the replacement. Should there have been a second? Or where can i get replacement size specs if this ones flattened/worn down?

Dumb question time with background- on mustang cobras, its a known issue that the fuel rail pressure sensor diagphram can blow out, allowing fuel into the oil. Is there a route that something similar could happen with the regulator on the 4.0s?

Excited for these! Ive been delaying pulling my dash so I don't have to do it twice.

are you talking JT Gladiator or J-Truck?

I need bench, not buckets

Thanks for the heads up- did not know that!! Also wish i had known what a pain it would be to track down parts when I swapped bench to buckets, and tossed things like seatbelts.

Looking for some parts to swap my bucket seats to a bench. Still need a grey pair of seatbelt female ends, and a mini console in grey (Or any color- I'm talking to my cousin about 3D printing these). Thanks

I dig this- especially because the same base can be kitted as a truck, wrangler-like open air suv thing, closed suv, and slantback.

Is there a list of cars that these can be sourced from somewhere?

I saw 15's planned for mid next year on the ko3 when they were announced

Ill def be in for a set.

Cool, i can do venmo. Whats your ID there?

@krustyballer16Its 1018pm monday! am I too late? Is the paypal on page 1 still good? Edit: trying to send, but friends and family isnt an option anymore.

Wow, this is great- I just pulled a replacement dash for my faded and split one. Ill hold off doing the swap until these (hopefully!) start being sold.

I wanted to give an update since I hate finding old threads with no resolution: I replaced my 6 year old battery, as well as cleaned the relays, starter solenoid, all the power connections, and installed the meanlemons wires that I've had for a few years. Started right up cold, no problem.

When it does start, its after Ive done the ether down then TB thing. Its the initial start after being cold where it just won't do it. it starts every time using starting fluid, then runs fine. if it was a carb, I would say the starting/idle jet is clogged. Ill take a video next time I am out there.

It will start if I have already started it recently (I start in the morning, drive to get coffee it will restart. Let it sit for a few days, it won't start again). Once it's running, it runs... well, like a 230,000 mile 4.0. Good.oil pressure, no sputtering, maintains 70mph no problem. I usually run more gas through it, but the start issue had us driving the gladiator over the comanche mostly. Plus the fuel pump being a butt. Random thought- what if I reversed the lines coming out of the sending unit? I'm not used to return style systems. I'll check cruiser for dizzy testing.

Just a poke- I don't have a fuel pressure gauge. Fuel is from last summer, 91 recreational fuel (non-ethonal). Replaced the filter when I did the pump, along with the lines in the tank with fuel-friendly line. Its happened after sitting for anywhere from 3 months to 3 days. Its stored at my dads, so I don't get out to it on a daily basis. I may ask him to try starting it next time after a day to see what happens.

Hey guys, Need some help with a (suspected) fueling issue on my 1988 4.0. Simply put, it won't start after sitting. I turn the key, fuel pump primes, fuel is at the rail, and then turn the key... nothing. cranks, no firing. Maybe a burp sometimes. If I spray fluid into the TB, it fires right up and idles all day, drives fine. Turn it off, starts right back up again. So far, I have done the ground refresh, C101 refresh, I did replace the pump (It stopped priming at one point, so maybe unrelated), new CPS, and put a jumper on the ballast resister. the CPS has had the TSB for the rewiring done in the past. Looking for any ideas where to go next, beyond 'carry some starter fluid and torx'.

Congratulations, and thank you for everyrthing, Jeremy! If you have any ready to go radios left, I would happily take one off your hands

I get that! I might of missed it, but whos carpet did you use? How does it fit?

Looks great, Steve! That recovered bench makes me regret swapping to buckets

That daytonas back window... ouch. if i recall correctly, thats unique to those too.
