  1. Okay.. having done exactly what you are asking about.... Take Skinny up on his offer.. switches suck... When I finally take the dashboard out of my truck for the harness replacement.. a newer column is going in. To replace my damaged ignition lock solenoid.
  2. Awful lot of Barbie Jeep crap on that list... Wonder if spray on mud and fake beadlocks get you extra points...
  3. Great pictures!! thank you for sharing. That sand doesn't look deep enough for that XJ to need a push..
  4. I've use 12.5's on my wheeling XJ... They are VERY floatation tire feeling going down the road. I doubt that the extra weight of a built MJ would be enough to cure that. Some folks are fine driving that way. I did not like the feeling of not having the control over the Jeep.
  5. Airgas website.... http://www.airgas.com/ They could be forgotten rentals. With a smaller rental outlet, sometimes the number of cylinders get confused and the smallest customers get lost in the shuffle.
  6. Ummm...AGA was bought out by Airgas. Their office is still open in Machesney Park. Right now Acetylene though is beyond expensive right now. The plant that makes a goodly portion of one of its components, blew up this spring down in Kentucky. Are those tanks rentals or owned?? If they are rentals, you will be screwed anyway. You will have to establish an account with Airgas and live with their policies. If they are owned, TSC does tank swaps at the store. And the prices are really reasonable.
  7. Thanks!! I may be going out there for a couple days. Now I know where I can find some grub other than seafood and chain crap.
  8. I'm probably out. I have to most likely go to Baltimore this week now. Sounds like I will get back either Friday night late, or Saturday.
  9. You forgot the Plymouth Arrow..errr... Dodge D50 being a Mitsubishi..
  10. My Dana 44 in my MJ has 3.07.
  11. It is set by a smoke colored timer under your dash. Remove the timer, the light goes out and stays out. It will be to right side under the lower dash. look to the right of the steering column. You can see the plastic gears inside that make the timer work. Unplug it, grab a cold drink, call it a day.
  12. AMC era.... all possible gear ratios were available at time of ordering... 3.07, 3.31, 3.55, 3.73, 4.10, 4.56 were all listed as possible in 86.
  13. It's on the JP magazine blog... and they rundown the MJ in every paragraph. What did you expect from Wrangler Magazine???
  14. Postal Pete is the Chrysler dealer in Galena, IL... They have RHD jeeps ALL over their property..
  15. whowey

    Meh?

    Yuck.... look like canned crap reheated over a bum barrell yuck.
  16. There is a member out west that has done it. The threads will be at least a couple years old about it, he did wood grain down the sides of the truck. The pictures of it were pretty sharp.
  17. I say either way the cops will be called. More than likely by Pete..
  18. They are glued in. But if you are careful about removing them, you can put them back over the little posts that are there and secure them with a bit of adhesive.
  19. He is most the time. He's old, so he gets cranky. Rob :D That's me.. Mr. Cranky.... If I go to Motown.. I'm not gonna actually wrench.. I'm gonna stand around and b*@$£ about you damn kids and your fancy tools.. and talk about the old days when all we had was one hammer and a monkey wrench and we liked it.
  20. I wasn't angry... I stupidly wore long pants.. and that day turned out pretty warm...And I lost my sunglasses.. so I was blind and tired of being blind all day. So hot and tired.. but not angry. We picked through this great AMC collection that day, got to see Peter's WFC, and their eclectic group of Jeeps. it was an absolutely outstanding Jeep day. And you are correct... Brent is in his 20's... just getting closer towards the far end of them
  21. There is supposed to be a PCM flash available that fixes that for postal service vehicles.
  22. If you are trying to find literature that supports your claim the bed was intended for transporting firefighters, there is one point noone mentioned. Even though the chassis is a Ford. The body is more likely than not, another manufacturer. These manufacturers would buy commercial chassis and put their own bodies on them, because they did not build the drivetrain.
  23. So the side brackets are just the tow hook brackets, with the bumper mount in a different place. A winch set-up for a ARB bumper would be set-up to pull exactly the same way(out the bottom of the winch)....
  24. Weren't light trucks subjected to a different year?? Seems like it was a couple years later for trucks.
  25. Something that is working and not causing problems....
