Ah yes. My joke is catching on. Love it.

Oh my god that’s perfect!

I think the only thing I didn’t wire in was the VFD wire that would dim when you pull the light switch to turn the lights on. Otherwise yes it works as it should. Has that slight heating issue that I think Minuit mentioned at some point but that’s about it.

Let me know if you need help with the wiring, I have diagrams from Minuit on what each wire is on both sides.

I think Minuit custom makes a harness for the dash side to modern radios. I just installed an RX-141 but my harness plugs were never there so I took computer power supply plugs that plug directly into the board and used them to make plugs for both the radio and dash side. Works pretty well but as Minuit told me that the RX-141 is the only AMC radio with that plug set up so you may just may have to butcher them. I even tried searching for those pak con plugs and couldn't find them.

Yeah I thought the same thing too for having an AZ MJ only to find myself replacing the drivers side floor.

Actually I still may have my aftermarket set. I can go consult my parts catalog and post the number.

Did that on a mashed up 89 2 door XJ. That was not fun and the damage did not make removing the ECU that much easier. I do feel your pain.

Mopar or team Cherokee has the right ones. But the Mopar one you have to assemble.

I thought there was that weird extended cab proto that existed! I would get in touch with a Jeep dealer there and see if they will give you a build sheet and date.

Just wait till you put it back in. Itll feel like a different truck.

It is incredibly satisfying to have clean carpet isn't it?

I never understood Chryslers 91-92 Pioneer decal but damn does that truck make me want to go sit down and buff and polish my paint.

Good luck to ya!

Neat! I came up with how we all could play Cards Against Humanity on here but I got lazy and never followed through. But I will definitely have to come up with good meme.

If its plastic, not really. I suppose you could remove the old stud and glue or JB weld another one in its place. Or some members have metal handles(Chrome but paintable) that the stud normally doesn't break but is threaded into the handle so if it breaks it can be replaced. I know I broke my drivers side handle studs. Just ended up replacing the handle until I got my metal handles.

You can apply ground and power to it and the gauge will go one way or the other. I believe it should have three prongs or screws that mount it. One would have to be ground and power. I think the cluster circuit sheet should have what each screw is labeled. If it’s busted then you have a parts cluster.

Pulled from what must’ve been a pristine MJ.

You could always remove the gas gauge from the cluster and bench test it to see if it has any movement to it. I found that my big gas gauge when I still had that had one of the wires break off when I was reassembling the cluster and the gauge dropped to empty until I fixed it with a drop of solder.

Youre probably right. I dug deeper into the FMS past the I.S.'s and found the newer (Nabco) master cyls and they show that a rebuild kit comes with some sort of lube for the ball of the piston. I will probably try the ceramic grease and rebuild one of the two or use the grease on my current one to prevent pressure loss and leakage. That's my main issue is pressure loss if the pedal is let up completely. So my next question is what grease is brown or dries up and turns brown?

DOA pump?

I need to find this one and do the same thing. Wonder if that can be blown up to a bigger size.

NTK is OEM. I found that out when I ordered a NOS one from a dealer.

So I went to AMC salvage today and got a few things. Of the few things was two clutch masters. One a Nabco(OEM) and the other is three circles to form a triangle. Anyways upon inspection of the Nabco one I found dried up brown grease on the plunger side closest to the cylinder. My question is, is there a chemical property between the two where the grease acts as a gasket? Pic for what I'm talking about: What is your thoughts about the idea? And I haven't seen anything in the FSM on this when rebuilding these.

Will do!
