Thanks Pete! Was nice to finally put a face with an avatar!

If you're still stumped after following all of the above, shoot me a PM. I had a similiar-ish issue (With my H.O. motor) that came from removing the valve cover....I busted a solder in my wiring harness when I moved it and it caused intermittent issues just like this. I wouldn't suspect this though unless all your grounds, vacuum lines, etc. are known good. I have a post about it....somewhere......
-
Time, time, time.... that's why I am asking if anyone is interested who's done it before.
-
If it is it's the vacuum, harness behind the dash. I've replaced all the vac lines under the hood, including the one that feeds under the dash (that was a serious PITA for sure). In that case going to 97+ is even better because those vents are electrically operated I believe, no vacuum solenoids.

Keep us updated with your progress. Lucky you have a renix.....the REM is a fantastic little tool us H.O. guys can only dream about. -
Yup. Used to have pictures of me doing around New Orleans.....dunno where they went.

Clearly you've never lived in New Orleans good sir.

Carbed 87 Comanche RENIX 4.0
Tex06 replied to kaidenlem's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Yeah. There's better options now though. You ever see the 4L60 controlled with a set of house light switches? It's every bit a trashy as you would think but it works! -
Naw, it just means you shouldn't go down to the neighborhood bar and start frenching the locals

The percentages change based on how big the group is.

I remember ol' Franks car. That was a pretty slick setup back in the day. -

Close. 3D filament is cheap. https://www.amazon.com/Gizmo-Dorks-Filament-Printers-Natural/dp/B074W3LLJ8/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=nylon+filament&qid=1605656103&sr=8-5 -

3D printers can handle a lot of different materials now. Nylon would probably be my 1st choice, good gas and heat resistance. In fact, my cruise control cable end (the one that attaches to the throttle body and always breaks) is 3D printed nylon. Has held up great for the past 8 months so far. -
My school put together a map by county of how likely you are to get COVID-19. It's updated often, like the weather map and you can see your chances of comin in contact with someone who has it based on the size of the even you're going to. Pretty cool. https://covid19risk.biosci.gatech.edu/

MJ Winch Bumper Lineup
Tex06 replied to DirtBound's topic in Vendors- members making products for MJs
Ever make this modification Krusty? -
I'm currently considering a BadDadFab BTSB winch mount Winch: Yes Prefabricated BadDadFab https://www.facebook.com/Baddadfab/ Looks pretty cool and allows a winch mounted without changing the length of the truck. The newest addition is D-rings that stick thru the bumper and tie back to the unibody giving you a nice anchor point. $400 plus shipping seems pretty reasonable too.
-
I know this is kind of a dead horse but most of the front bumper pics here are from over 10 years ago at this point with a lot of missing pictures, broken links, or discontinued items. I'd like this thread to be a quick reference for those of us looking to modify our front end. Bumper Picture(s) Winch (Y/N) Homemade/Kit/Prefabricated Manufacturer Link (if applicable) What you like/dislike or would change if you could do it over again, price, and any general comments.

Fog in/on gauge cluster?
Tex06 replied to Wounded_Fighter's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Any smell of smoke? -
Glad to hear you've adjusted well. I go to the gym for lunch 3-4x a week. Then eat whatever I brought while working at my desk (ADHD, much? lol). The gym breaks up my day and helps me be more productive in the afternoons I find. Working from home is nice, I get 1x a week to do it, schedule permitting. I've managed to get my motorcycle maintenance done and fixed the driveshaft on my MJ with my WFH days....it's very nice.

Cheap '91 in NC - $3800
Tex06 replied to Tex06's topic in Craigslist/Marketplace/eBay... i.e. Not Your Stuff
I'm afraid you nailed this one on the head. -
You know, I would take that. I'm not quite ready to do the upgrade and if I pull my dash for my AC I'd love to get a working tripmeter. Then I can see if I can repair mine. I've also got some electrical gremlins behind the dash, intermittent wipers that work intermittently (loose connection somewhere, I've swapped the module with 2 others from the JY and same results), AC control lights don't light up, flickering dash lights behind my speedo (but not the tach, yet another loose connection). Oh and my blower door/blend door seems to be jammed, I always have air coming thru the defrost vents no matter where I set it and it's weak coming from the floor and upper vents.
-
I'm gonna have to ask you to sit in the corner, sir.....

Updated interior with digital gauges, a working tripmeter since apparently the HO tripmeters can't be repaired, working A/C, updated looks, power windows and locks, bigger windows.....I can go on Oh, and I just think the facelift looks better overall too.
