CR Laurence still makes the back glass. Heck, they even make the optional sunroofs still. http://crlaurence.com/crlapps/showline/offerpage.aspx?Productid=87862&GroupID=1653&History=30587:21770:1351:1389&ModelID=1653

I’ve been using wd40 degreaser to remove any leftover adhesive that has baked on over the years and it works great. Straight wd40 works well also. As for wrapping, I wouldn’t do it unless I prepped all the panels the right way. There are so many seams where rust can form and if they are not prepped, treated and sealed correctly, I can see the wrap acting as more of a moisture trap. Remember, as has been said before, these trucks rust from the inside out at least with paint you can see what’s happening and where a problem area may be developing. Just my .02

I run a magnaflow stainless spun cat and magnaflow muffler and am happy with the sound. Not very harsh at all. Also ran a Gibson mwr muffler and liked it also, more so than the magnaflow. To me a straight 6 sounds best on about a 20” glass pack with 2.25 or 2.5 tubing. The flow masters, magnaflows, Gibson’s and the like sound better on that off-beat non balanced V8 sound but a straight 6 has a totally different sound. Very balanced and smooth. I like to pursue the sound of performance straight 6’s instead like European cars. It doesn’t sound “ricer” by any means but a glass pack really adds some depth and brings out that straight 6 sound. Headers, downpipe and even tips all contribute to the sound also.

If you can slip it loose there is some exhaust putty that will seal that up well. I’d throw a clamp on it also as was shown while the putty/epoxy is curing. Either that or get out the old hot metal glue gun a weld it up. Exhaust shop shouldn’t charge more than 20-30 for a simple weld fix like that

Yeah not sure what the end product will look like but the idea is interesting. If he can’t complete it I bet someone on here could

Personally I’d prefer to have a tachometer over the large fuel gauge but if your looking for one like the picture, it’s out of a police package XJ.

Dakota digital and several others will make a cable drive to electric speedometer “box” but you could also just swap to the later model vss and install it on you transfer case. There is a 2 wire and a 3 wire unit and in all reality either one will work but will be a bit of a wiring project. The Dakota digital box will let you fine tune your speedometer to calibrate for tire size so your speedometer can be dead on.

Interesting concept if it’s well executed. I could see how JK lights may look decent on an MJ: https://www.etsy.com/listing/813067015/jk-tailights-to-mj-conversion-brackets?ref=cart

@Red Mistress Has a NOS Comanche specific full console for you. The MJ specific has a block off for the ebrake and a blank ashtray for the rear seat. And I believe it matches your interior. I will safely say that you will never come across another one of these. You can get the two brackets on eBay or out of any xj

Yeah I think your right. The police package XJs used that font on their “calibrated” speedometer for quite a while

i think 89 was the last year for the old style knuckles. 90+ should be the same brakes I believe.

I don’t really understand the hype with the csf radiators. I got mine from 1800radiator. It’s all aluminum and the build quality is great with zero issues. If I didn’t already have this radiator I’d go with the mishimoto or griffin

Not sure I know what your question is???

Sweet, thanks

Where did you get them? I’ve been looking for some

Mechman, singer and dc power all make great alternators. I use a Singer but the 91+ use a hairpin style alternator. Powermasters are Hera are good also but had much lower idle output than what I wanted

Agreed the low pinion Dana 44 in tjr’s weren’t super stout and were probably on par with HP d30’s. If the TJ got the 8.25 and HP 30 that would have been a nice combo. The JK d44 however, was nothing new. They had that same gearset and housings ends a available about 10 years earlier at least. They just weren’t in Jeeps. As for the m220, they are also in Chevy pickups.

Ok, it’s different. At least it’s still called a Dana 35 😆. A lot of these “new” axles are previous model axles though. Think about all the different iterations of the Dana 35’s. Exploder ifs front axles, and some 07 JK’s also got a rear 35 which may be more similar to the current gen JL 35’s. When the jk’s came out everyone was talking about the all new Dana axles and the HD 44. Turns out that axle was in existence in various forms at least a decade before. I haven’t looked into the new 35’s very much but it will be interesting to see what becomes of them

That’s a ridiculous price! New ones can be had for quite a bit less

Just came across a NOS tube and fin evaporator with that impossible to find foam insulator: https://teamcherokee.com/a-c-evaporator-core-assembly-heavy-duty-oem-cherokee-1991-1996/ i retrofit a plate and fin condenser in mine and it is phenomenal but obviously not original.

That’s awesome! Didn’t even know the existed

I know there is decent interest in a stand-alone 4.0 harness. I made one myself but it’s been brought up many times before on other forums

Figures... well I guess I’m doing the same thing

Selling? 😎
