Well, I should've done this a while ago but I bought another NOS coolant cap for the 2.5L and decided to research the stampings on the under side. Well if you search up 48-400 cap under the Al Gore youll find the cap in many colors and materials. Thought id share this little discovery for when the cap supply runs low.

I don't know much about Europe's automotive registration but this is an 80's truck we are talking about. Our across the pond members have had issues registering because of tail lights but back then the MJ tail lights didn't require the amber turn signal over there like they require it now. Just blame the U.S. for the red tail lamps.

Well most, if not all MJ's and XJ's were built here and then exported to Europa. So AMC|Jeep and Chrysler still followed the U.S. automotive regulations when it came to building cars. Never understood why Europe is so finicky about car registrations.

Do you not have a plate on the fire wall or the radiator support?

I may be color blind but are you sure? The second clean picture looks like a good match. Either way your plastic parts could also be faded too but who knows.

Bell house is under your truck, its the housing for the clutch and often looks like a bell and its what mates the transmission to the engine. You could pour brake fluid down the master and see what happens. Just listen for a leak on the ground if your slave failed.

Lol, when working in parts long enough, you truly get to see Chryslers questionable expense choices aside from a $100k SUV.

Bad cap wouldn't be the cause of failure. The purpose of the cap is to keep debris and air from making the brake fluid go bad on ya.

Chrysler? Maximize profit? Lol.

Looking good! Maybe its the camera but why do the lights look brighter in the second photo?

I just talked with @CoastChief about your issue and he told me what you found. Once you get good at dropping the trans under 40 min it gets old. Pretty much all slave cylinders are junk right out of the box. Biggest problem with them is the U-clips that hold the metal hoses to the slave. If those arent replaced with something better or pushed down more securely, the pressure from the clutch master and lines will cause one of those internal slave lines to fail. Check the bell house and see if theres a mass amount of brake fluid dripping right there. I had been in your spot once where I lost all fluid and the u-clip popped out and popped the hose out of place. Also check the lines too for a failure from the master to the union fitting for the slave cylinder.

Lol, I still need to replace the passenger side bracket, but after the whole bolt ordeal with the drivers side, I am very hesitant to replace it lol.

1500'S have coil suspensions for the rear.

Ill be expecting another little dump sometime next week and hopefully another order to be placed at the same time.

Yes, this is a build sheet/date and body code that is to your VIN. I work at a dealer and can get access to that info. Fiatslug has all the parts books to easily decode your VIN's trim and package level. No problem!

Yes, I shouldn't have anymore things to do when I get home from work for a while.

I feel if they're using other styling from past modern Jeeps, then it shouldn't bear 100K price tag. At least it should have the classic waggy front end, then I could justify the price tag.

Nice scores! Especially the AMC plate. As for the 4 wheel drive, AMC put those on 4x4 vehicles from 84-86 except the Eagle which got that nameplate all the way to 88.

Not sure if anyone has been following or watching the new "SJ" closely but the full body was revealed today and all I have to say is it looks like an Escalade.

Fun fact, The drivers side cap is the one I got from you that had that weird hole in it. Thanks!

Bumper has a bit more imperfections than what I first saw but thats A-ok. Its really weird to see the OEM bumper on my truck.

They actually look hell of a lot better than the old Renix clips. I just might get two of them tomorrow.
