MJ Junkie (6/11)

  1. Exactly! South Louisiana, boats are everywhere.... but I'm in the company truck a lot now because gas card. I'll grab the MJ this weekend and stretch her legs a bit.
  2. No, no, let's keep the original theme. I like that it's different!

  5. That worked!
  6. Clean. Nothing more than surface rust from what I have seen.
  7. '92 shortbed 2wd. 2.5L. Clean title. Dent in roof, otherwise the body is in good shape. Has comanche bedliner. 5spd trans. Not currently running. $1000. New Orleans
  8. Damn, still not showing up.
  9. Can you repost the picture?
  10. Damn, I could use this but it's a haul from S. Louisiana to SC.
  11. Yup, New Orlean LouisianA. All good. I've got a small block 283 and some ideas for this gal if somebody doesn't take her off of my hands soon....
  12. Dang....some of the OGs who were old when I started prowling in 2014. Chico, I got a '92 shortbed, 2WD, 4 banger that needs a home down here in NOLA. She's a project but not rusty.
  13. Honestly, not that bad. You already have a plasma cutter and MIG. Get a small cutoff tool (like 3" cutoff or a regular 4" grinder with cutoff wheels and a dremel for the nitty gritty stuff. Cut out areas that are more or less rectangular while the truck is on jack stands (take as much load off of that area before you start cutting). Remove inner fenders and other stuff that may be in the way. Use cardboard (beer boxes work great!) and a sharpie and scissors to make templates for each piece you cut out. Doing it in bigger pieces is better, but I've patchworked several frames and unibodies (XJ and MJ) with good success. Make sure that where you're welding to is solid metal. If it's thin/rusty/iffy....it's gonna suck to weld to. Also, clean the area as best you can with a wire wheel before welding....clean steel is easy to weld to, dirty steel is not. Lastly, youtube is your friend. Look for "rusty frame repair" videos. You can weld in heavier metal to the thin unibody. Lots of people have done this with good success. Good Luck!

    AX15 (2wd or 4wd)

    No, but pull-a-part has several 4x4 cherokees we can go snag one from. The NP231 is pretty easy to find around here.
  15. That 2wd AX-15 isn't still available by chance is it?
