That’s awesome!! There’s a train yard by my house that has those little rideable trains. It’s like a religion for those guys.

There are those who grow up. And then there are those who never grow up. Kinda jealous. I wanted to be a conductor or an engineer but moved away from that path.

See that would be an awesome piece to reproduce along with the winch and brush guard. But I think the demand for the gun cabinet would be pretty low. But if someone was able to draw up the design and measurements, it probably would be easy to DIY at home. I can’t imagine it being made out of thick metal. Probably something like sheet metal.

If I had the room I would set my trains up. I think I have too many trains to count really. It love to store them somewhere but the AZ heat melts everything. But I love them.

There ya go. 86 specific bolts.

The amount of people who believe this stuff is hilariously unreal. Lol.

I want Tesla to come out with an all electric DeLorean. It seems like Elon loves it so much that his crossover has gullwing doors like DeLorean or the old mercedes SL300

Thank you gentlemen. Well just as I feared. I think the take off challenger pads are smaller than ours.

Anyone? Just length width and height of the pad itself. I have three of them I would like to sell and possible future ones.

Someone said a while ago that if you cut both halves of a rear flare you could make one MJ flare.

Could I get a measurement on the automatic brake pedal pad itself? I want to confirm and see if Chrysler is still using the same ones to date.

Probably. I did the same thing when I was installing AC as you can’t access that nut with the 2.5L radiator in the way. I had my dad wiggle the wheel back and forth to take out slop but slop never came out.

Just ordinary green ones will do. Update, The clear coat may protect the paint and nameplate but after a bit it turned to crap on the chrome plating. So I will leave that up to anyone's discretion to use clear or not. I used automotive spray clear.

Well she needs another coat of paint. Now the surface is completely smooth. I went and wet sanded all the bumpy bits of paint with 1000 grit. But I still like the job none the less. She should look better with a new coat and a good buffer. Here's a better pic. I still need to do the tail gate.

Yeah but I was just sharing what I ended up having to do to not mess up the flares so much while sanding. Wet sanding went a long ways to not leave a mark on the plastic itself.

500 grit wet sanding on the flares Pete. Use an electric sander. In rough case a very light touch with 100 grit to get paint off to prep for new coat. I spent about 8 hours in total on both my rear flares to remove old paint. And one side paint was really rough but was a PITA to get off with the fine grit.

The ignition cylinder is missing it’s screw that holds it in place. There’s a lever in the column that you are supposed to push down with a couple of your fingers on your right hand while simultaneously rotating the ignition to you. That will allow you to remove the key while keeping the ignition lock in the column. Welcome to a GM Saginaw steering column.

I have one. It just shows it’s age with a crack and broken ash tray hinge

Lol fair. I wouldn’t suggest electric steering anyways. To many problems with some of them.

Damn. Thanks Buck.

Can you even retrofit an electric steering pump to our trucks?

May I ask what kind of shape the lower dash panel was in?

You could get rid of power steering on the 2.5L too and just have it be like an old optionless vehicle.

I would grab the tire winch anyways. it makes a great bracket and if you just end up tearing the winch out of the middle, you could send the brackets to krusty to have him refab and mount any other winch we could think of using. The B-pillar exhausters need to always be snagged too. Rear MJ wiring harness should be a must grab. Meaning the inside cab and back to the tail lights.

Thanks gentlemen. Just need to go get more paint and clear and she will be ready for badging and decal.
