D44 disc conversion
ghetdjc320 replied to ftpiercecracker1's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Is this going on an mj 44 or a later model 44? -
Sounds like the output gain from the head unit may be to high. Likely an internal issue. Are you using rca pre outs or speaker level output for your amplifier input? If your amp accepts both you can try swapping from one to the other.

Project “Tomahawk”
ghetdjc320 replied to ghetdjc320's topic in MJ Hardcore Tech: Epic Journeys to Greatness
Good to know. I’ve run the TS9500SR with much success before on my YJ and was planning to go that route. Not sure if stock tow hooks would still fit but I’ll look into it. I won’t be running them though as I opted for the bumper version with the built-in D ring mounts. Plus the boostwerks kit has tow points included. -
Project “Tomahawk”
ghetdjc320 replied to ghetdjc320's topic in MJ Hardcore Tech: Epic Journeys to Greatness
Went with the warrior 56051 1st gen bumper/bull bar. Since I’m running the boostwerks hidden winch setup, I was looking for a bumper that had a factory clean and period correct look while not having some receiver hitch or winch cradle installed in the center. It also needed to not look out of place compared to the factory rear step bumper that I’m running. The Warrior bumper looks like it could have easily been a factory option. The boostwerks kit is quite amazing. Every little piece of hardware or bracket you could ever need are in the kit. Powder coating on the brackets is very nice. It also includes some new tow attachment points in the kit. The boostwerks mount has a nylon style fairlead to prevent rope/cable damage as it spools in and out between the winch plate and bumper. The bumper itself will also get a nice fairlead. Not sure which winch to go with yet but I’ve had good success with Warn and even better success with Superwinch so I’ll probably end up going that route. I’m about a week out from digging in to this project. Completion eta will be 6 weeks so it will be very busy. But with 90% of the parts on hand already it should move fast. -
This is looking familiar 😂 Out of curiosity, did I you make the logos a glow through design?

Do you have an auto tranny? Could be the shift selector indicator lighting. 99% sure that’s an illumination circuit.

Center console light of some sort possibly? Almost all of the orange with black stripe wires were dash/console illumination of some sort. See if it comes on when the headlight switch is activated and the dimmer turned up.

Looks like pinion depth is a bit too shallow. The brass colored stuff is probably just the marking compound.

I’ve shipped a few vehicles. Keep in mind that most companies you will find are just brokers. Best prices for a reputable company that actually handles things end to end was from Montway. They did great with a couple of vehicle now and are very familiar with all the little nuances with auto shipping. If you post up on U ship, Montway will be one of the ones bidding but their prices are higher on u ship vs just going direct to their site. Just my $.02 for auto shipping

Wrangler JK wheels for my Comanche
ghetdjc320 replied to JimiGibbs's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Interesting, I’ve seen a lot of different tech on this regarding the proper offset of the WJ unit bearings in the xj d30. So you’re running stock WJ unit bearings with the 5x5 pattern? Any issue running this? -

Novak radiator just came in along with the triple fan kit. Unit is fully assembled which is nice. The welds look great. Interesting that the first fan on the hot side is larger than the rest. That’s a good design idea. The core is much larger than any other xj/mj radiator I’ve ever seen. -

Can’t tell from the pics but did you plate the frame area around the link mounts or just weld straight to the frame? -
CR Laurence duo-pane rear windows almost gone?

That's the only source left it would seem. They are on amazon and ebay also. All from the same source -
Tire sizes, lifts and pictures
ghetdjc320 replied to Dammerung's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
It's nice having all the pictures for reference. Due to a lack of "complete" lift kits for the MJ in the 1.5-4.5" range, it would be very good to know how each lift was accomplished as there are many different components being used. The GS springs, add a leaf, shackles etc. all are different methods yielding different results. Any chance we could post up the lift amounts based on factory measuring techniques so we could get an idea what the actual lift amounts would be on our trucks? There are so many different factory ride heights it seems so it would be great to get some solid basis for comparison. -

No problem. They are available new too it looks like but they're pricey! -

ghetdjc320 replied to KBRAY88MJ's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Just swap to the old style speedo sender for the 231. you will need to use the "long" style speedo gear but otherwise it just bolts in. All those speedo sending units/vss in the MJ/XJ/YJ/ZJ/TJ np231 are physically interchangeable with the accompanying correct style speedo gear -
CR Laurence duo-pane rear windows almost gone?
ghetdjc320 replied to ghetdjc320's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Yep, just confirmed. DK hardware is the only vendor that has remaining stock listed. They sell on eBay, Amazon and direct on their site. Same price everywhere it seems like. 6 left now on amazon as well. -

ghetdjc320 replied to ghetdjc320's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
I believe it’s all from the same supplier. They had 7 and I just got one. -
It looks like CR Laurence no longer carries the rear sliding duo pane window. There are exactly 6 left in stock with DK Hardware. There were 12 about a week ago. Just picked one up myself as well. If anyone knows of anyone else who has any inventory left let me know. Otherwise, it looks like remaining stock is about done for.
